An email filter is a software application that hinders unasked-for emails from entering a given mailbox. An enormous percentage of the email communication around the world involves spam email messages: offers for pills or cash, forged banking notifications, etc. That’s why, it is pretty important to activate filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk email messages, but also any chance of being scammed in some way. Spam filters detect different things, so as to guarantee higher levels of protection – specific words and phrases or the frequency with which they appear in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP address of the sender’s mail server. Hosting providers frequently resort to the services of 3rd-party spam-tracking organizations that offer up-to-date databases in order to render spam filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting legitimate messages, even if they comprise suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting

If you decide to host your domains with us and you choose any of our cloud web hosting, you’ll be able to enable spam filtering for any email address that you set up. With a couple of clicks of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can configure 5 separate safety levels. If you still receive junk messages or the email filters start preventing genuine emails from entering your inbox, you can switch to some other level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam detection service is ensured by one of the most famous filters – SpamAssassin. In case you do not want to risk omitting a legitimate message that may be blocked as spam owing to its content, you can also set up custom email filters based on the sender, the subject or the body of the message and redirect the emails to another email address where you can examine them later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more mailboxes with any of the domain names hosted in the account, you’ll be able to activate the advanced, 5-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we provide and keep all unwanted email messages away from your inbox. This option is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and it can be enabled or disabled for any email account whenever you want. You can also adjust the protection level with several clicks in case spam emails continue to appear in your mailbox or the spam filter starts removing legitimate messages. Since you can select if the spam should be erased momentarily or delivered to a separate mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and view all filtered messages there, so as to make sure that you will not omit an email message that you require. The messages that the email filter permits to go through will still be received in your inbox.
