Spam Filters
Get familiar with e-mail spam filters, the things they do and how you can enable them.
A spam filter is a software application that impedes unwelcome emails from reaching a particular inbox. A huge percentage of the email communication around the world involves spam email messages: offers for pills or money, sham banking notifications, and so on. This is why, it is quite important to use filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any possibility of being scammed in some way. Spam filters detect different things, so as to ensure higher levels of security – specific words or the frequency with which they appear in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP address of the sender’s SMTP email server. Web hosting providers frequently use the services of 3rd-party spam-monitoring organizations that provide up-to-the-minute databases to render spam filtering simpler and more effective without affecting genuine emails, even if they include suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Cloud Website Hosting
The protection of any email account that you create under a
cloud website hosting account with our company is guaranteed by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we employ. You can activate it through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with 5 security levels based on the spam score given to each and every email message depending on various parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words, the sender, etc. If you keep getting junk email messages, you can always raise the level or if you are scared that you may skip a genuine message, you can combine the automated email filter with a custom one and forward all email messages from a particular sender to a separate email address. In case you decide that you no longer want a spam filter for a particular email account, you can disable it with only several clicks of the mouse.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you use a
semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you create one or more email addresses with any of the domain names hosted under your account, you’ll be able to activate the powerful, five-level SpamAssassin anti-spam filter that we offer and keep all unwelcome emails away from your mailbox. This service is accessible through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel’s Email Manager section and it can be activated or deactivated for any email account at any time. You can also configure the level of protection with a few clicks if unsolicited bulk email messages still appear in your mailbox or the anti-spam filter starts removing authentic emails. Since you can choose whether the spam should be erased straight away or redirected to a separate mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for instance, and check all filtered emails there, so as to make certain that you won’t miss a message that you require. The messages that the filter permits to proceed will still be delivered to your inbox.
