Most emails sent around the globe these days are spam, i.e. unsolicited messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also present a threat to your PC, not to mention that you may be scammed. That is the reason why numerous mail service providers rely on spam filters, which are apps that keep track of all inbound messages and filter the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email includes and how often they’re mentioned, what website a certain hyperlink redirects to, what outbound SMTP email server the message is sent from, etc. Certain web hosting companies also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date info about unsolicited email messages, to make certain that their clients won’t get any email in their inbox that is not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Shared Hosting
If you order a shared hosting plan from our company and if you use our email services, you will be able to set up anti-spam protection for any of the mailboxes that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. With no more than a couple of mouse clicks, you can choose between 5 separate security levels. In case you start getting spam, you can start with the lowest one and then gradually raise the level till you stop receiving spam. We rely on one of the best and most famous email filters available called SpamAssassin. It checks the header and the body of each message that you get and calculates a spam score, based on which it either deletes a specific email message or permits it to enter your inbox. Hepsia will also allow you to configure custom email filters and either eliminate unwanted messages or forward them to a third-party email address like spam@domain.com where you can read them once again at a later point in time.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you reach the decision to use the mail service that comes with our semi-dedicated hosting service, you can keep all unsolicited messages out of your inbox by enabling the five-level spam protection that we offer with every plan. This can be accomplished via the feature-stuffed Email Manager section of the Control Panel and we use the advanced SpamAssassin filter to make sure that we provide the very best possible protection for our clients. You can have a different protection level for each email account and you can select whether the filtered messages should be deleted or delivered to another email account where you can examine them at a later time in order to make certain that you are not losing genuine email messages. Switching to another level or disabling the spam protection is also easy and takes a few clicks of the mouse.
