Most of the emails sent around the world these days are spam, in other words – unrequested messages with various offers or with links to malware. Not only are such email messages aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your own PC, not to mention that you may be ripped off. That’s the reason why a lot of mail service providers rely on email filters, which are software apps that ‘scan’ all incoming messages and filter out the undesired ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email contains and how many times they’re referred to, what site a certain link leads to, what outgoing SMTP server the message is sent from, etc. Certain hosting companies also use the databases of spam-tracking organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-date information about unwelcome email messages, to ensure that their clients won’t get any message in their inbox that’s not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Hosting

In case you reach the decision to host your domain names with us and you select any of our Linux shared packages, you will be able to activate spam filtering for any mailbox that you set up. With several clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can switch between 5 different levels of protection. In case you still receive spam messages or the spam filters start preventing legitimate email messages from reaching your inbox, you can switch to some other level just as easily. The efficiency of our anti-spam solution is guaranteed by one of the most famous filters – SpamAssassin. In case you do not want to risk omitting a genuine email message that may be considered as spam owing to its content, you can also create custom spam filters based on the sender, the subject or the body of the email message and re-send the emails to another mailbox where you can check them later.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts deliver top anti-spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin anti-spam filter, which ranks all inbound messages 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 email account through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can select between five different levels – from very high to very low. If you still receive spam email messages, you can increase the level, or if legitimate emails are reported as spam, you can lower it. Enabling or disabling the anti-spam protection takes as little as 2 mouse clicks and you can select if the filtered email messages should be deleted momentarily or if they should be delivered to a chosen mailbox where you can read them at a later time, so as to ensure that valuable emails won’t get lost.
