Spam Filters
Find out more on spam filters - what they are, the way they work and how to set up one.
Most of the emails sent around the world nowadays are spam, i.e. unwanted messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such email messages annoying, but they also present a threat to your PC, not to mention that you may get swindled. This is why, a lot of email providers rely on spam filters, which are software applications that ‘scan’ all inbound emails and filter the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words an email message contains and how often they’re cited, what web site a specific link points to, what outgoing SMTP email server the email message comes from, and so on. Certain providers also make use of the databases of spam-tracking organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-date information about unrequested messages, to make certain that their customers won’t get any email message in their mailbox that’s not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting
The safety of any mailbox that you create in a
cloud web hosting account with our company is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we employ. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five levels of protection based on the spam score given to every message in accordance with different parameters, such as the frequency of certain words and phrases, the sender, and so on. If you keep getting unsolicited bulk email messages, you can always raise the level or if you’re afraid that you may skip an authentic email message, you can mix the automatic filter with a custom one and forward all emails from a given sender to some other email account. If you reach the decision that you no longer want a spam filter for a certain mailbox, you can disable it with no more than a couple of clicks of the mouse.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you use a
semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you create one or more email addresses with any of the domain names hosted in your account, you will be able to enable the powerful, five-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer and keep all undesirable messages out of your inbox. This feature is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and it can be activated or deactivated for any mailbox whenever you wish. You can also configure the safety level with a few mouse clicks if spam messages continue to appear in your inbox or the spam filter begins deleting authentic emails. Since you can select if the spam should be erased momentarily or delivered to a different mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered emails there, so as to make certain that you will not miss an email that you need. The emails that the spam filter allows to proceed will still be delivered to your mailbox.
