Most of the email messages sent around the globe these days are spam, in other words – undesirable messages with different offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also present a risk to your personal computer, not to mention that you may be duped. That’s why, numerous email providers resort to spam filters, which are software applications that ‘scan’ all inbound emails and filter the undesired ones on the basis of their content – what words an email message contains and how many times they’re referred to, what web site a certain hyperlink redirects to, what outbound email server the email is sent from, and so on. Certain web hosting companies also use the databases of spam-tracking organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute information about unsolicited email messages, to ensure that their customers will not receive any message in their mailbox that’s not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Website Hosting
In case you reach the decision to host your domain names with us and you pick any of our Linux website hosting, you’ll be able to activate spam filters for any mailbox that you create. With a couple of mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can set up 5 different protection levels. If you continue to receive unsolicited bulk email messages or the spam filters start preventing genuine messages from entering your inbox, you can switch to another level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam filtering solution is ensured by one of the most widely used spam filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk missing a legitimate email message that may be mistaken for spam due to its content, you can also set up custom spam filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the email message and redirect the emails to another email address where you can read them later.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you get a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more mailboxes with any of the domain names hosted under your account, you’ll be able to activate the advanced, 5-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer and keep all unwelcome messages away from your mailbox. This service is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel and it can be enabled or disabled for any email account at any time. You can also adjust the security level with a few clicks of the mouse in case unsolicited bulk messages continue to reach your inbox or the anti-spam filter starts erasing authentic email messages. Since you can select if the spam should be deleted momentarily or forwarded to a separate email address, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered messages there, so as to make certain that you will not miss a message that you require. The messages that the anti-spam filter allows to proceed will still be received in your inbox.
