Most email messages sent around the world these days are spam, in other words – unwelcome messages with different offers or with links to malware. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also present a threat to your own personal computer, not to mention that you may get scammed. That is why, lots of email service providers resort to email filters, which are apps that keep track of all incoming messages and filter the unwanted ones based on their content – what words an email message includes and how often they’re cited, what web site a certain hyperlink leads to, what outbound mail server the message comes from, etc. Certain web hosting companies also use the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date information about undesirable messages, to ensure that their clients won’t get any email in their inbox that shouldn’t be there.
Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting
Our cloud hosting servers employ one of the best spam filters out there. It is called SpamAssassin and is included with each web hosting package, so in case you host your domain names with us, you can choose one of the 5 security levels that the spam filter offers for any email account that you’ve got here. You can do this with only 2 clicks from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel that is used to manage all cloud hosting accounts. SpamAssassin ‘scans’ the header field and the content of each and every email, calculates a spam score and then proceeds on the basis of the level that you’ve selected. Each mailbox can have a different level and you can select if the messages that the filter flags as spam should be erased or redirected to some other email address where you can check them at a later point in time, so as to prevent erasing a legitimate email. Switching to some other level or disabling the spam protection is also truly easy.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you use a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more email accounts with any of the domains hosted in the account, you will be able to enable the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer and keep all undesirable emails out of 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 whenever you wish. You can also change the level of security with a couple of clicks if unsolicited bulk messages continue to reach your inbox or the filter starts deleting legitimate messages. As you can select if the spam should be deleted right away or redirected to another email address, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered messages there, so as to make certain that you won’t miss an email that you require. The email messages that the anti-spam filter allows to go through will still be received in your inbox.
