Most emails sent around the world nowadays are spam, i.e. undesirable messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also present a risk to your personal computer, not to mention that you may get swindled. For this reason, plenty of mail service providers use spam filters, which are apps that ‘scan’ all incoming emails and filter out the unwanted ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email message contains and how many times they’re cited, what web site a specific link opens, what SMTP mail server the message is sent from, etc. Some hosting companies also use the databases of spam-monitoring organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute information about undesirable messages, to make certain that their customers won’t receive any email message in their inbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Web Hosting

If you decide to host your domain names with us and you select any of our web hosting, you will be able to activate spam filtering for any mailbox that you set up. With a couple of clicks of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can set up five separate security levels. In case you still receive unsolicited bulk messages or the spam filters start preventing genuine email messages from entering your mailbox, you can change the level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam protection service is guaranteed by one of the most famous email filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk skipping a genuine email that may be regarded as spam owing to its content, you can also set up custom email filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the message and forward the emails to some other mailbox where you can examine them at a later point in time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you use one of our semi-dedicated servers, you won’t need to worry about junk email messages stuffing your mailboxes every now and then, as you can make use of the famous SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer with each and every semi-dedicated account. Our custom-built Hepsia hosting Control Panel will permit you to activate the filter for any mailbox with several clicks and you can choose any of the five levels of safety – from very low to very high. The level can be changed at any moment if, for example, authentic email messages get blocked, or if spam messages go through and appear in your Inbox folder. To be on the safe side, you can choose all filtered messages to be redirected to a special mailbox such as spam@your-domain.com and not to be erased. In this way, you can examine them every now and then to make sure that you haven’t missed out on a genuine email.
