Most email messages sent around the globe nowadays are spam, i.e. unasked-for messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also present a risk to your PC, not to mention that you may get swindled. That is why, many mail service providers resort to email filters, which are software applications that monitor all inbound messages and filter the unwanted ones on the basis of their content – what words an email contains and how often they are mentioned, what website a certain hyperlink opens, what server the email comes from, and so on. Certain companies also rely on the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about undesired messages, to ensure that their customers will not receive any email message in their inbox that should not be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting

Our cloud web hosting servers use one of the very best anti-spam filters out there. It is called SpamAssassin and is offered with each and every shared web hosting plan, so if you host your domains with our company, you can choose one of the five levels of safety that the spam filter offers for any email account that you have here. You can accomplish this with just two clicks from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel that’s used to manage all shared accounts. SpamAssassin checks the header field and the content of each email, gives it a spam score and then proceeds based on the level that you have picked. Every mailbox can have a different level and you can select if the emails that the anti-spam filter marks as spam should be erased or re-sent to a different email account where you can view them later, so as to avoid erasing an authentic message. Switching to a different level or deactivating the protection is also astonishingly easy.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you use a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more email accounts with any of the domain names hosted under your account, you’ll be able to activate the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin spam filter that we offer and keep all undesirable email messages out of your inbox. This functionality is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel and it can be enabled or disabled for any mailbox whenever you like. You can also alter the level of security with a couple of clicks of the mouse if junk email messages still enter your inbox or the spam filter starts erasing authentic messages. As you can choose if the spam should be erased momentarily or redirected to some other mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for instance, and view all filtered email messages there, so as to make sure that you will not miss a message that you require. The messages that the filter permits to go through will still be delivered to your mailbox.
