Most of the emails sent around the globe nowadays are spam, in other words – undesirable messages with different offers or with links to malware. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also pose a threat to your personal computer, not to mention that you may be duped. That is the reason why many email providers use email filters, which are software applications that ‘scan’ all inbound emails and filter the unwanted ones on the basis of their content – what words an email message includes and how many times they are referred to, what website a particular hyperlink redirects to, what outgoing mail server the message comes from, and so on. Some web hosting companies also use the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about undesired emails, to ensure that their clients won’t get any email in their mailbox that’s not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Web Hosting

In case you decide to host your domain names with our company and you choose any of our web hosting, you’ll be able to set up spam filters for any email address that you set up. With a couple of mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can configure five different levels of safety. If you continue to get unsolicited bulk messages or the email filters start preventing genuine emails from reaching your mailbox, you can switch to another level just as easily. The quality of our spam protection solution is ensured by one of the most widely used email filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk missing an authentic message that may be mistaken for spam due to its content, you can also set up custom filters based on the sender, the subject or the body of the message and forward the emails to a different mailbox where you can view them later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you use a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you create one or more email accounts with any of the domains hosted under the account, you will be able to activate the powerful, 5-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we provide and keep all unwelcome emails away from your inbox. This service is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section and it can be enabled or disabled for any email account whenever you want. You can also adjust the security level with a couple of clicks in case spam email messages continue to appear in your inbox or the email filter begins removing genuine email messages. Since you can choose if the spam should be deleted instantly or delivered to some other mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered emails there, so as to make sure that you won’t omit a message that you need. The email messages that the filter allows to proceed will still appear in your mailbox.
