Most email messages sent around the world nowadays are spam, i.e. unwelcome messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also pose a threat to your PC, not to mention that you may get tricked. For this reason, many email service providers rely on spam filters, which are software apps that monitor all inbound email messages and filter the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email consists of and how many times they are cited, what website a certain link leads to, what outbound SMTP server the email comes from, etc. Some web hosting companies also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations devoted to providing the most up-to-date information about undesired email messages, to ensure that their clients will not receive any message in their mailbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Hosting

If you get a shared hosting plan from us and if you use our email services, you will be able to set up spam filtering for any of the email accounts that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With just a few clicks, you can choose between five separate security levels. If you start getting spam, you can begin with the lowest one and then gradually raise the level till you stop getting spam. We make use of one of the very best and most famous filters available called SpamAssassin. It analyzes the header section and the body of every email that you get and determines a spam score, based on which it either deletes a particular message or permits it to enter your inbox. Hepsia will also permit you to configure custom spam filters and either erase undesired messages or send them to a third-party address like spam@domain.com where you can check them again afterwards.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server plans offer top-of-the-line spam protection ensured by the popular SpamAssassin spam filter, which ranks all incoming emails based on a spam score that depends on parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of certain keywords, the subject, the sender, etc. When you enable the filter for any account through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can choose between five separate levels of safety – from very low to very high. If you keep receiving spam emails, you can increase the level, or if authentic emails are blocked as spam, you can decrease it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection requires as little as 2 clicks and you can select if the filtered email messages should be erased instantaneously or if they should be delivered to a chosen email account where you can examine them at a later point in time, so as to make certain that the messages that you need will not get lost.
