An email filter is an app that prevents unsolicited messages from entering a given mailbox. A large percentage of the email traffic around the globe involves spam emails: offers for pills or money, forged banking notifications, etc. Because of this, it is quite important to set up email filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk email messages, but also any chance of being duped somehow. Spam filters detect various things, so as to ensure better protection – 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 outbound SMTP mail server. Hosting companies frequently resort to the services of 3rd-party spam-tracking organizations that offer up-to-date databases in order to make email filtering easier and more effective without affecting authentic email messages, even if they comprise suspicious words.
Spam Filters in Hosting
If you decide to host your domains with us and you pick any of our hosting, you’ll be able to activate anti-spam protection for any email account that you create. With a couple of mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can set up five separate levels of security. In case you continue to receive spam or the spam filters start preventing genuine emails from entering your inbox, you can switch to another level just as easily. The quality of our anti-spam service is ensured by one of the most popular email filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk omitting an authentic email message that may be regarded as spam due to its content, you can also create custom email filters based on the sender, the body or the subject of the message and redirect the emails to a different email address where you can examine them later.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages deliver top-class spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin email filter, which ranks all incoming email messages on the basis of a spam score that depends on parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of specific keywords and phrases, the sender, the subject, and so on. When you enable the filter for any account through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can choose between five separate levels of security – from very high to very low. If you keep receiving unsolicited bulk messages, you can raise the level, or if genuine messages are reported as spam, you can lower it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection takes as little as two clicks of the mouse and you can choose if the filtered emails should be erased momentarily or if they should be delivered to a designated mailbox where you can check them at a later time, so as to make certain that valuable emails will not get lost.
