Most of the emails sent around the globe these days are spam, i.e. unwelcome messages with various offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also pose a risk to your own PC, not to mention that you may be ripped off. This is why, numerous email providers use spam filters, which are apps that ‘scan’ all inbound email messages and filter out the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email includes and how often they’re referred to, what website a specific link redirects to, what outgoing email server the message comes from, and so on. Some hosting providers also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date information about unrequested messages, to ensure that their customers will not receive any message in their inbox that should not be there.
Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting
If you decide to host your domains with our company and you select any of our cloud hosting service, you’ll be able to enable anti-spam protection for any email address that you set up. With a couple of clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can configure five separate safety levels. In case you still get unsolicited bulk email messages or the spam filters start preventing genuine messages from reaching your inbox, you can switch to some other level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam detection service is ensured by one of the most famous spam filters – SpamAssassin. If you don’t want to risk skipping a legitimate email that may be regarded as spam due to its content, you can also create custom spam filters based on the sender, the body or the subject of the email message and redirect the emails to some other email account where you can view them at a later time.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you take advantage of one of our Linux semi-dedicated service, you won’t have to worry about unsolicited bulk emails occupying your mailboxes all the time, as you can make use of the popular SpamAssassin spam filter that we provide with each account. Our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to activate the filter for any email account with a few clicks of the mouse and you can select any of the five levels of security – from very low to very high. The level can be altered at any time if, for instance, authentic messages get blocked, or if unsolicited bulk email messages go through and reach your Inbox folder. To be on the safe side, you can choose all filtered emails to be delivered to a special mailbox such as spam@your-domain.com and not to be deleted. Thus, you can go through them from time to time to make certain that you have not missed out on a legitimate message.
