An email filter is a software application that prevents unasked-for messages from entering a given inbox. An immense percentage of the email correspondence around the globe is composed of spam email messages: offers for pills or money, fake banking notifications, etc. Because of this, it is very important to use email filters in order to avoid not only unsolicited bulk emails, but also any chance of being swindled in some way. Email filters detect different things, so as to guarantee better safety – specific words and phrases or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s outgoing server. Hosting providers often use the services of third-party spam-detecting organizations that provide up-to-date databases in order to make email filtering better and simpler without affecting genuine messages, even if they comprise suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting

The security of any mailbox that you create under a cloud hosting account with our company is guaranteed by the advanced SpamAssassin filter that we use. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it offers 5 protection levels based on the spam score given to each email message depending on different parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words and phrases, the sender, and so on. If you keep getting spam email messages, you can always raise the level or if you are afraid that you may omit a legitimate email message, you can combine the automatic email filter with a custom one and redirect all email messages from a given sender to some other mailbox. In case you decide that you no longer require an email filter for a particular mailbox, you can deactivate it with just a couple of clicks of the mouse.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you take advantage of one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting, you will not have to worry about unsolicited bulk messages stuffing your mailboxes all the time, as you can resort to the popular SpamAssassin email filter that we provide with each and every semi-dedicated account. Our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel will allow you to activate the filter for any email account with a couple of mouse clicks and you can choose one of the five levels of safety – from very low to very high. The level can be altered at any time if, for example, legitimate emails get filtered, or if junk emails go through and reach your inbox. To be on the safe side, you can choose all filtered messages to be redirected to a special email account such as spam@your-domain.com and not to be deleted. Thus, you can go through them every now and then to ensure that you have not omitted a genuine message.
