An email filter is a software app that obstructs unsolicited messages from reaching a particular inbox. A significant percentage of the email communication around the world is composed of spam messages: offers for pills or money, fraudulent banking notifications, etc. For this reason, it is extremely important to enable filters in order to avoid not only unsolicited bulk emails, but also any possibility of being swindled somehow. Email filters detect different things, so as to guarantee better protection – particular words and phrases or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP address of the sender’s email server. Web hosts frequently use the services of 3rd-party spam-detecting organizations that provide up-to-date databases to render email filtering simpler and more effective without affecting genuine emails, even if they contain suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Shared Web Hosting

The security of any mailbox that you create in a shared web hosting account with our company is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we use. You can activate it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five security levels based on the spam score it gives to each message in accordance with various criteria, such as the frequency of particular words, the sender, etc. If you keep receiving junk emails, you can always increase the level or if you’re afraid that you may omit an authentic email message, you can mix the automated email filter with a custom one and redirect all messages from a particular sender to some other mailbox. In case you reach the decision that you no longer need anti-spam protection for a given email account, you can disable it with only a couple of mouse clicks.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you order a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you set up one or more email accounts with any of the domain names hosted under the account, you will be able to activate the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer and keep all unwanted emails away from your inbox. This feature is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section and it can be enabled or disabled for any email account at any time. You can also configure the security level with a couple of clicks of the mouse in case unsolicited bulk messages continue to enter your mailbox or the filter starts deleting legitimate messages. Since you can choose whether the spam should be deleted right away or re-sent to a different mailbox, you can set up spam@domain.com, for example, and view all filtered emails there, so as to ensure that you won’t miss a message that you require. The messages that the anti-spam filter permits to proceed will still be delivered to your inbox.
