Most of the email messages sent around the globe nowadays are spam, i.e. unsolicited messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also present a risk to your PC, not to mention that you may get duped. This is why, plenty of mail service providers resort to email filters, which are applications that monitor all inbound messages and filter the undesired ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email consists of and how often they are cited, what site a particular link leads to, what SMTP email server the email message comes from, etc. Certain web hosting companies also rely on the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unrequested emails, to make sure that their customers will not receive any email message in their inbox that should not be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting

If you get a cloud hosting plan from our company and if you make use of our email services, you’ll be able to enable spam filtering for any of the mailboxes that you create from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. With only several clicks, you can select between five different levels of safety. If you start getting spam, you can start with the lowest level and then gradually increase the level until you stop receiving spam. We use one of the best and most famous filters out there called SpamAssassin. It checks the header section and the body of each message that you receive and calculates a spam score, based on which it either erases a specific message or permits it to reach your inbox. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will also permit you to set up custom spam filters and either erase unsolicited email messages or redirect them to a third-party email address such as spam@domain.com where you can check them once again at a later time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you decide to make use of the mail service that is offered with our semi-dedicated servers, you can keep all unwelcome email messages out of your mailbox by enabling the five-level anti-spam protection service that we provide with every semi-dedicated hosting package. This can be achieved via the fully featured Email Manager section of the hosting Control Panel and we use the powerful SpamAssassin spam filter to make sure that we offer the best possible security for our clients. You can have a different level of protection for each email account and you can select if the filtered messages should be erased or delivered to a separate email account where you can check them at a later time in order to ensure that you will not skip genuine emails. Switching to a different level of protection or disabling the protection is also easy and requires a few mouse clicks.
