Most emails sent around the world these days are spam, in other words – unasked-for messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such email messages aggravating, but they also pose a threat to your computer, not to mention that you may get conned. This is the reason why plenty of mail service providers resort to spam filters, which are applications that ‘scan’ all incoming messages and filter the undesirable ones based on their content – what words an email contains and how often they’re referred to, what site a particular link redirects to, what outbound SMTP mail server the message comes from, etc. Certain web hosting companies also make use of the databases of spam-tracing organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date info about unrequested emails, to make sure that their customers will not receive any email message in their mailbox that shouldn’t be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting

In case you reach the decision to host your domains with us and you select any of our cloud hosting packages, you’ll be able to enable spam filtering for any email account that you create. With a few clicks of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can switch between five different security levels. In case you continue to receive junk email messages or the spam filters start preventing legitimate email messages from reaching your mailbox, you can switch to a different level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam detection solution is ensured by one of the most widely used spam filters – SpamAssassin. If you don’t want to risk skipping a genuine email that may be considered spam owing to its content, you can also set up custom email filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the email message and re-send the emails to a different email account where you can read them at a later time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you create one or more email addresses with any of the domains hosted under your account, you’ll be able to enable the powerful, 5-level SpamAssassin spam filter that we provide and keep all unwelcome messages away from your inbox. This service is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel and it can be enabled or disabled for any mailbox whenever you wish. You can also configure the safety level with several clicks of the mouse in case spam emails continue to enter your inbox or the email filter starts removing genuine emails. Since you can select whether the spam should be erased instantly or forwarded to a different email account, you can create spam@domain.com, for instance, and view all filtered messages there, so as to make sure that you will not miss an email message that you require. The messages that the anti-spam filter allows to go through will still appear in your inbox.
