An email filter is an app that hinders undesirable emails from reaching a given mailbox. A significant percentage of the email communication around the world consists of spam messages: offers for pills or cash, sham banking notifications, etc. That’s why, it’s quite important to use filters in order to avoid not only spam email messages, but also any chance of being tricked in some way. Spam filters detect various things, so as to ensure better protection – particular words or the frequency with which they occur in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s outgoing SMTP mail server. Hosting companies often rely on the services of 3rd-party spam-tracking organizations that offer up-to-the-minute databases to make email filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting authentic messages, even if they include suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Cloud Website Hosting

The safety of any email account that you set up under a cloud website hosting account with our company is ensured by the advanced SpamAssassin spam filter that we use. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with 5 security levels based on the spam score it gives to every message in accordance with different parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words, the sender, and so on. If you keep getting unsolicited bulk email messages, you can always increase the level or if you’re afraid that you may miss a genuine email, you can combine the automatic filter with a custom one and forward all emails from a given sender to another mailbox. In case you reach the decision that you no longer want a spam filter for a particular email account, you can deactivate it with only several clicks of the mouse.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you use one of our semi-dedicated hosting, you will not need to worry about spam emails clogging your mailboxes every now and then, as you can take advantage of the popular SpamAssassin spam filter that we offer with each semi-dedicated hosting account. Our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel will permit you to activate the filter for any mailbox with a few clicks of the mouse and you can select one of the 5 levels of protection – from very high to very low. The level can be changed at any moment if, for instance, genuine emails get filtered, or if junk messages go through and reach your Inbox folder. To take no chances, you can choose all filtered messages to be re-sent to a special email account like spam@your-domain.com and not to be erased. In this way, you can go through them every now and then to make sure that you haven’t missed out on an authentic email.
