Most email messages sent around the world nowadays are spam, in other words – undesired messages with various offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your computer, not to mention that you may get duped. That’s the reason why plenty of email service providers make use of email filters, which are software applications that ‘scan’ all incoming emails and filter out the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words an email contains and how often they’re referred to, what website a given link redirects to, what mail server the message is sent from, etc. Certain hosting companies also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unasked-for emails, to ensure that their clients will not get any email in their mailbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Website Hosting

Our website hosting servers employ one of the very best spam filters available on the market. It is called SpamAssassin and is available with each and every hosting plan, so in case you host your domain names with us, you can pick one of the 5 security levels that the anti-spam filter offers for any email account that you have here. You can accomplish this with just two clicks from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel that is used to manage all web hosting accounts. SpamAssassin checks the header and the content of each message, gives it a spam score and then continues based on the level that you’ve picked. Every email account can have a different level and you can choose if the emails that the spam filter marks as spam should be erased or re-sent to some other mailbox where you can read them later, so as to avoid erasing a genuine message. Switching to another level or disabling the protection is also surprisingly easy.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server packages offer top-of-the-line anti-spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin filter, which sorts all inbound emails on the basis of a spam score in accordance with parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of particular keywords and phrases, the subject, the sender, etc. When you activate the filter for any account through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can select between 5 different security levels – from very high to very low. If you continue to get junk email messages, you can raise the level, or if genuine email messages are marked as spam, you can decrease it. Enabling or disabling the anti-spam protection takes as little as two mouse clicks and you can choose if the filtered messages should be deleted momentarily or if they should be delivered to a chosen mailbox where you can examine them later, so as to make certain that important emails won’t disappear.
