An email filter is an application that blocks undesired messages from reaching a particular inbox. A substantial percentage of the email traffic around the globe consists of spam email messages: offers for pills or cash, false banking notifications, and so on. That’s why, it is quite important to enable email filters in order to avoid not only spam emails, but also any chance of being ripped off somehow. Email filters detect different things, so as to deliver higher levels of security – specific words or the frequency with which they occur in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP of the sender’s outbound SMTP email server. Hosting companies frequently rely on the services of third-party spam-tracking organizations that provide up-to-the-minute databases to render spam filtering better and easier without affecting authentic emails, even if they include suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Shared Website Hosting

The security of any email account that you set up under a shared website hosting account with our company is guaranteed by the powerful SpamAssassin spam filter that we use. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five protection levels based on the spam score it gives to each message in accordance with different parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words, the sender, and so on. If you keep receiving unsolicited bulk messages, you can always raise the level or if you’re scared that you may miss a genuine email message, you can combine the automated email filter with a custom one and redirect all email messages from a particular sender to a separate email account. In case you decide that you no longer require anti-spam protection for a given email account, you can deactivate it with just a couple of clicks.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server plans offer top-of-the-line spam protection ensured by the famous SpamAssassin spam filter, which ranks all incoming messages on the basis of a spam score in accordance with parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of particular keywords and phrases, the subject, the sender, and so on. When you activate the filter for any account through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can select between five separate levels of security – from very low to very high. If you keep receiving junk messages, you can increase the level, or if authentic email messages are marked as spam, you can decrease it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection takes as little as 2 clicks and you can choose if the filtered emails should be deleted straight away or if they should be re-sent to a designated email account where you can check them later, so as to ensure that valuable email messages won’t get lost.
