An email filter is a software app that hinders unasked-for emails from reaching a particular mailbox. A huge percentage of the email traffic around the globe is composed of spam messages: offers for pills or money, fraudulent bank notifications, etc. That’s why, it’s very important to set up filters in order to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any possibility of being conned somehow. Email filters detect different things, so as to deliver better safety – certain words and phrases or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP address of the sender’s outgoing SMTP email server. Hosting companies often rely on the services of third-party spam-tracing organizations that offer up-to-the-minute databases to make spam filtering easier and more efficient without affecting legitimate emails, even if they include suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting

In case you reach the decision to host your domain names with our company and you select any of our Linux cloud web hosting, you’ll be able to enable spam filters for any email address that you set up. With a couple of clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can configure 5 separate levels of safety. In case you continue to receive junk emails or the filters start preventing legitimate messages from entering your inbox, you can switch to a different level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam filtering service is guaranteed by one of the most widely used filters – SpamAssassin. In case you do not want to risk missing an authentic message that may be considered as spam due to its content, you can also create custom filters based on the body, the subject or the sender of the email message and forward the emails to some other email address where you can view them later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server plans provide first-rate spam protection ensured by the famous SpamAssassin filter, which ranks all inbound messages based on a spam score that depends on patterns and parameters, such as the recurrence of specific keywords, the sender, the subject, and so on. When you activate the filter for any mailbox via the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can choose between 5 different levels of security – from very high to very low. If you still get spam emails, you can raise the level, or if authentic emails are reported as spam, you can decrease it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection takes as little as 2 clicks and you can select if the filtered messages should be erased right away or if they should be delivered to a designated email address where you can review them later, so as to make sure that valuable emails won’t get lost.
