A spam filter is a software application that stops unasked-for email messages from entering a particular inbox. An immense percentage of the email communication around the world consists of spam emails: offers for pills or money, fake banking notifications, and so on. Because of this, it’s really important to use filters to avoid not only spam emails, but also any possibility of being swindled somehow. Filters detect various things, so as to ensure better protection – particular words or the frequency with which they appear in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP address of the sender’s mail server. Hosting providers frequently make use of the services of third-party spam-tracing organizations that provide up-to-date databases in order to render spam filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting legitimate email messages, even if they include suspicious words.
Spam Filters in Shared Web Hosting
If you reach the decision to host your domains with our company and you select any of our shared web hosting, you’ll be able to activate spam filtering for any mailbox that you create. With several clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can configure five different levels of safety. If you still receive spam emails or the filters start preventing authentic email messages from reaching your inbox, you can switch to a different level just as easily. The quality of our spam filtering service is guaranteed by one of the most famous spam filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk missing a legitimate email message that may be blocked as spam because of its content, you can also configure custom spam filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the email message and forward the emails to some other email address where you can review them at a later point in time.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you get a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more mailboxes with any of the domains hosted under your account, you will be able to enable the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin filter that we offer and keep all undesired emails away from your mailbox. This service is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section and it can be activated or deactivated for any mailbox at any moment. You can also configure the level of security with a couple of clicks of the mouse if spam email messages continue to enter your inbox or the anti-spam filter begins deleting legitimate emails. Since you can choose whether the spam should be deleted immediately or delivered to a separate email address, you can set up spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered emails there, so as to make sure that you won’t omit an email message that you require. The email messages that the email filter permits to go through will still be received in your mailbox.
