Most emails sent around the world nowadays are spam, in other words – unasked-for messages with different offers or with links to malware. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your personal computer, not to mention that you may get tricked. This is the reason why a lot of email service providers rely on spam filters, which are software applications that ‘scan’ all inbound emails and filter the undesired ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email message consists of and how often they’re referred to, what website a particular link redirects to, what outgoing email server the email message is sent from, etc. Some companies also rely on the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute information about undesired messages, to ensure that their customers won’t receive any email in their mailbox that shouldn’t be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting

If you order a cloud web hosting plan from us and if you use our email services, you’ll be able to enable anti-spam protection for any of the mailboxes that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With just a couple of mouse clicks, you can choose between 5 separate security levels. If you start receiving spam, you can start with the lowest one and then slowly boost the level till you stop receiving spam. We make use of one of the best and most popular spam filters available on the market called SpamAssassin. It checks the header field and the body of each email that you receive and calculates a spam score, based on which it either erases a particular email message or allows it to reach your mailbox. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will also allow you to activate custom email filters and either get rid of unwelcome messages or send them to a third-party address like spam@domain.com where you can view them once more after that.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server plans come with exceptional spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin filter, which sorts all inbound messages on the basis of a spam score in accordance with parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of particular keywords, the subject, the sender, and so on. When you enable the filter for any email account through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can pick between five separate security levels – from very high to very low. If you continue to get spam, you can increase the level, or if legitimate emails are blocked as spam, you can lower it. Enabling or disabling the anti-spam protection requires as little as 2 clicks of the mouse and you can choose if the filtered messages should be erased straight away or if they should be re-sent to a designated email account where you can examine them at a later time, so as to ensure that important messages won’t disappear.
