Most email messages sent around the globe these days are spam, in other words – unasked-for messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such email messages annoying, but they also present a threat to your personal computer, not to mention that you may be tricked. That is why, a lot of email service providers make use of email filters, which are software apps that monitor all incoming messages and filter the undesired ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email includes and how many times they are referred to, what site a specific hyperlink redirects to, what outgoing mail server the email message comes from, etc. Some providers also rely on the databases of spam-tracing organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date info about unrequested emails, to make certain that their customers will not receive any email in their inbox that should not be there.
Spam Filters in Website Hosting
The safety of any email account that you set up in a website hosting account with us is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin spam filter that we use. You can enable it through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it offers 5 protection levels based on the spam score it gives to every email in accordance with different criteria, such as the frequency of particular words, the sender, and so on. If you keep receiving junk email messages, you can always raise the level or if you’re afraid that you may miss a legitimate email, you can combine the automated filter with a custom one and forward all email messages from a certain sender to a separate email address. If you reach the decision that you no longer require a spam filter for a certain email account, you can disable it with no more than several clicks of the mouse.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you get a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you create one or more email accounts with any of the domain names hosted under your account, you will be able to enable the advanced, 5-level SpamAssassin email filter that we provide and keep all unsolicited email messages out of your mailbox. This feature is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel and it can be activated or deactivated for any email account at any moment. You can also configure the safety level with a few clicks of the mouse in case unsolicited bulk emails still enter your inbox or the anti-spam filter starts erasing authentic email messages. As you can select whether the spam should be erased straight away or redirected to a separate email address, you can create spam@domain.com, for instance, and view all filtered emails there, so as to ensure that you will not omit an email that you need. The email messages that the spam filter permits to proceed will still be delivered to your mailbox.
