An email filter is an application that obstructs unwelcome messages from entering a particular mailbox. A substantial percentage of the email correspondence around the world is composed of spam messages: offers for pills or money, forged banking notifications, and so on. That is why, it is quite important to set up filters in order to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any chance of being tricked in some way. Email filters detect various things, so as to deliver higher levels of security – specific words and phrases or the frequency with which they appear in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s email server. Web hosting providers often rely on the services of 3rd-party spam-tracking organizations that provide up-to-the-minute databases in order to make spam filtering better and easier without affecting genuine messages, even if they include suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Hosting

If you decide to host your domain names with us and you select any of our Linux hosting service, you will be able to enable spam filters for any mailbox that you create. With a few mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can set up five separate levels of protection. If you continue to receive junk email messages or the spam filters start preventing legitimate email messages from entering your mailbox, you can change the level just as easily. The efficiency of our anti-spam solution is guaranteed by one of the most famous filters – SpamAssassin. In case you don’t want to risk skipping an authentic email message 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 email message and re-send the emails to a different email address where you can examine them at a later point in time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you order a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you set up one or more mailboxes with any of the domain names hosted under your account, you will be able to activate the powerful, five-level SpamAssassin spam filter that we provide and keep all unwanted email messages out of your mailbox. This option is accessible through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section and it can be enabled or disabled for any mailbox whenever you want. You can also tweak the level of safety with a couple of mouse clicks in case junk email messages continue to appear in your inbox or the filter begins removing authentic emails. As you can choose whether the spam should be deleted right away or forwarded to a different email account, you can create spam@domain.com, for instance, and check all filtered messages there, so as to ensure that you will not omit an email message that you need. The email messages that the email filter allows to proceed will still be delivered to your mailbox.
