Most email messages sent around the world nowadays are spam, i.e. unwanted messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also present a threat to your own computer, not to mention that you may get ripped off. That’s why, numerous mail service providers make use of email filters, which are apps that ‘scan’ all incoming emails and filter out the undesired ones based on their content – what words an email consists of and how often they’re referred to, what site a certain link opens, what outgoing server the email message is sent from, etc. Certain hosting companies also rely on the databases of spam-detecting organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute info about unsolicited emails, to make certain that their clients will not get any email message in their inbox that should not be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Hosting

If you order a shared hosting plan from our company and if you make use of our email services, you’ll 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 clicks, you can select between 5 separate levels of protection. If you start receiving spam, you can start with the lowest level and then gradually boost the level until you stop receiving spam. We make use of one of the very best and most popular spam filters available called SpamAssassin. It analyzes the header and the body of each and every message that you get and determines a spam score, based on which it either deletes a given email or permits it to enter your inbox. Hepsia will also allow you to set up custom email filters and either eliminate unsolicited messages or redirect them to a third-party email address like spam@domain.com where you can check them once more later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting, you won’t need to worry about unsolicited bulk email messages clogging your mailboxes every once in a while, as you can resort to the popular SpamAssassin email filter that we offer with each semi-dedicated server account. Our custom Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to activate the filter for any email account with several mouse clicks and you can pick one of the five safety levels – from very low to very high. The level can be altered at any moment if, for instance, genuine messages get filtered, or if junk emails go through and appear in your inbox. To be on the safe side, you can choose all filtered emails to be delivered to a special email account such as spam@your-domain.com and not to be erased. In this way, you can check them from time to time to ensure that you haven’t missed out on a genuine message.
