An email filter is a software application that blocks unwanted email messages from reaching a given mailbox. A substantial percentage of the email traffic around the world involves spam emails: offers for pills or cash, fake banking notifications, etc. For this reason, it is pretty important to set up filters to avoid not only spam email messages, but also any chance of being duped somehow. Email filters detect different things, so as to provide better protection – particular words or the frequency with which they occur in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP of the sender’s SMTP server. Web hosting companies frequently rely on the services of 3rd-party spam-monitoring organizations that offer up-to-date databases to render spam filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting legitimate messages, even if they contain suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Shared Website Hosting

The security of any mailbox that you set up in a shared website hosting account with us is guaranteed by the advanced SpamAssassin email filter that we employ. You can enable it through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five levels of protection based on the spam score it gives to every email depending on different criteria, such as the frequency of given words and phrases, the sender, and so on. If you keep receiving junk email messages, you can always increase the level or if you are scared that you may miss an authentic email, you can combine the automated email filter with a custom one and forward all messages from a given sender to another email address. If you reach the decision that you no longer require an email filter for a given email account, you can deactivate it with no more than several clicks.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you reach the decision to use the mail service that comes with our Linux semi-dedicated services, you can keep all unasked-for messages away from your mailbox by enabling the 5-level anti-spam protection that we offer with every semi-dedicated hosting plan. This can be done through the full-featured Email Manager section of the Control Panel and we use the powerful SpamAssassin email filter to make certain that we provide the best possible security for our clients. You can have a different protection level for each mailbox and you can select whether the filtered emails should be deleted or re-sent to a different email account where you can check them at a later point in time so as to ensure that you won’t skip genuine emails. Switching to another level of protection or deactivating the anti-spam protection is also easy and requires several mouse clicks.
