An email filter is an application that stops unwelcome messages from entering a given inbox. An immense percentage of the email correspondence around the globe involves spam emails: offers for pills or cash, forged banking notifications, etc. Because of this, it’s rather important to activate email filters in order to avoid not only spam emails, but also any chance of being conned somehow. Email filters detect different things, so as to deliver higher levels of security – certain words and phrases or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP of the sender’s SMTP server. Hosting companies frequently rely on the services of 3rd-party spam-monitoring organizations that provide up-to-date databases in order to render spam filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting genuine email messages, even if they contain suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting servers employ one of the best anti-spam filters out there. It’s called SpamAssassin and is offered with every cloud hosting package, so if you host your domain names with our company, you can choose one of the 5 safety levels that the filter offers for any mailbox that you have here. You can accomplish this with just two clicks of the mouse from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel that’s used to manage all cloud web hosting accounts. SpamAssassin analyzes the header and the content of each email, gives it a spam score and then continues based on the level that you’ve selected. Each mailbox can have a different level and you can select whether the messages that the filter flags as spam should be deleted or re-sent to a separate mailbox where you can check them at a later point in time, so as to prevent deleting an authentic email message. Switching to a different level or deactivating the anti-spam protection is also exceptionally easy.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts deliver first-class spam protection guaranteed by the famous SpamAssassin anti-spam filter, which sorts all inbound emails based on a spam score that depends on patterns and parameters, such as the frequency of particular keywords and phrases, the subject, the sender, etc. When you activate the filter for any account through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can select between 5 different safety levels – from very high to very low. If you continue to receive junk emails, you can increase the level, or if genuine email messages are classified as spam, you can lower it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection requires as little as 2 clicks and you can select if the filtered messages should be erased straight away or if they should be forwarded to a chosen mailbox where you can review them later, so as to ensure that the messages that you need won’t disappear.
