An email filter is an application that impedes undesired email messages from entering a given mailbox. A significant percentage of the email correspondence around the world involves spam messages: offers for pills or cash, fraudulent banking notifications, etc. For this reason, it’s rather important to activate email filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any chance of being conned in some way. Spam filters detect different things, so as to deliver higher levels of safety – certain words and phrases or the frequency with which they occur in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP of the sender’s outgoing server. Web hosts often make use of the services of third-party spam-detecting organizations that offer up-to-the-minute databases in order to make spam filtering easier and more effective without affecting legitimate email messages, even if they comprise suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting

If you reach the decision to host your domains with our company and you select any of our Linux cloud packages, you will be able to enable spam filters for any email address that you create. With several mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can set up five different levels of safety. If you still receive unsolicited bulk emails or the filters start preventing legitimate email messages from entering your mailbox, you can switch to some other level just as easily. The quality of our spam filtering service is guaranteed by one of the most famous filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk skipping an authentic email message that may be blocked as spam because of its content, you can also create custom email filters based on the sender, the body or the subject of the email message and redirect the emails to another mailbox where you can examine them at a later time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you order a semi-dedicated server package from our company and if you set up one or more email addresses with any of the domain names hosted under the account, you’ll be able to activate the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin spam filter that we provide and keep all undesired emails away from your inbox. This service is accessible through the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and it can be activated or deactivated for any email account whenever you want. You can also adjust the protection level with a couple of clicks in case junk email messages still appear in your mailbox or the filter begins removing legitimate messages. Since you can choose if the spam should be deleted straight away or forwarded to a separate email account, you can set up spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered email messages there, so as to make sure that you won’t miss a message that you require. The emails that the filter permits to go through will still appear in your inbox.
