Most emails sent around the globe nowadays are spam, in other words – unasked-for messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such email messages aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your personal computer, not to mention that you may get scammed. That is the reason why plenty of mail service providers resort to email filters, which are software apps that monitor all incoming emails and filter out the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email message contains and how many times they’re cited, what web site a given link points to, what outgoing server the email is sent from, etc. Some web hosts also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unwelcome emails, to make certain that their customers will not receive any email message in their mailbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Website Hosting

If you order a cloud website hosting package from us and if you use our mail services, you will be able to set up spam filtering for any of the mailboxes that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With no more than a couple of mouse clicks, you can choose between five different protection levels. In case you start receiving spam, you can start with the lowest level and then slowly boost the level until you stop getting spam. We rely on one of the best and most famous email filters out there called SpamAssassin. It checks the header section and the body of every message that you receive and determines a spam score, based on which it either erases a given email or permits it to enter your inbox. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will also permit you to create custom email filters and either erase unasked-for emails or redirect them to a 3rd-party address like spam@domain.com where you can view them once again later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting, you won’t have to worry about junk messages filling up your mailboxes all the time, as you can resort to the famous SpamAssassin filter that we offer with every account. Our in-house developed Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to enable the filter for any mailbox with a few mouse clicks and you can choose one of the 5 levels of protection – from very low to very high. The level can be altered at any moment if, for example, authentic email messages get blocked, or if junk emails go through and reach your Inbox folder. To take no chances, you can choose all filtered emails to be redirected to a special email account like spam@your-domain.com and not to be deleted. Thus, you can go through them every now and then to ensure that you haven’t omitted a genuine email.
