Most email messages sent around the world nowadays are spam, i.e. unsolicited messages with various offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also present a risk to your computer, not to mention that you may be duped. That’s why, numerous email providers make use of email filters, which are software applications that monitor all incoming emails and filter the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words an email consists of and how often they’re cited, what site a given link redirects to, what outgoing mail server the email message is sent from, and so on. Some web hosting providers also use the databases of spam-monitoring organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-the-minute information about undesirable emails, to ensure that their customers will not receive any email message in their mailbox that should not be there.
Spam Filters in Cloud Website Hosting
Our cloud website hosting servers rely on one of the very best spam filters out there. It’s called SpamAssassin and is included with every plan, so if you host your domains with us, you can opt for one of the five levels of protection that the spam filter offers for any email account that you’ve got here. You can accomplish this with just two clicks of the mouse from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel that is used to manage all shared accounts. SpamAssassin checks the header and the body of each and every email message, calculates a spam score and then continues based on the level that you have selected. Each email account can have a different level and you can choose whether the emails that the anti-spam filter labels as spam should be deleted or redirected to a different email address where you can read them later, so as to prevent erasing a genuine email. Switching to some other level or deactivating the anti-spam protection is also pretty easy.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server accounts offer top-of-the-line anti-spam protection guaranteed by the famous SpamAssassin email filter, which rates all incoming messages on the basis of a spam score that depends on patterns and parameters, such as the frequency of certain keywords, the sender, the subject, and so on. When you activate the filter for any mailbox through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can select between five different security levels – from very low to very high. If you still receive unsolicited bulk email messages, you can raise the level, or if authentic emails are classified as spam, you can lower it. Activating or deactivating the spam protection requires as little as 2 mouse clicks and you can select if the filtered emails should be deleted right away or if they should be delivered to a chosen email account where you can examine them at a later time, so as to make certain that important email messages won’t get lost.
