Most email messages sent around the globe nowadays are spam, i.e. unrequested messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such email messages aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your own personal computer, not to mention that you may get scammed. This is the reason why a lot of email service providers rely on email filters, which are software applications that monitor all incoming emails and filter the undesired ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email includes and how often they are mentioned, what site a given hyperlink leads to, what outgoing email server the message comes from, etc. Some hosting companies also use the databases of spam-monitoring organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date info about unwanted email messages, to ensure that their clients will not receive any message in their inbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Hosting

The safety of any mailbox that you set up in a shared hosting account with us is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we use. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it offers 5 safety levels based on the spam score given to each and every email message in accordance with various criteria, such as the recurrence of given words, the sender, and so on. If you keep getting spam, you can always raise the level or if you’re afraid that you may miss a legitimate email, you can combine the automated spam filter with a custom one and redirect all emails from a given sender to a separate mailbox. If you reach the decision that you no longer require an email filter for a certain email account, you can deactivate it with only a couple of clicks.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you order a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you set up one or more email accounts with any of the domains hosted under your account, you will be able to activate the advanced, 5-level SpamAssassin filter that we provide and keep all unwanted email messages out of your mailbox. This service is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel and it can be activated or deactivated for any email account whenever you want. You can also change the protection level with a few clicks of the mouse if unsolicited bulk email messages continue to appear in your mailbox or the filter starts deleting legitimate messages. As you can select whether the spam should be erased straight away or forwarded to a different mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and view all filtered emails there, so as to make sure that you won’t miss a message that you need. The emails that the filter allows to proceed will still appear in your mailbox.
