An email filter is an application that hinders unwanted email messages from entering a given mailbox. A considerable percentage of the email traffic around the world involves spam messages: offers for pills or money, fake bank notifications, etc. This is why, it’s rather important to enable filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk email messages, but also any possibility of being duped in some way. Spam filters detect different things, so as to guarantee better security – particular 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 SMTP email server. Hosting providers frequently make use of the services of third-party spam-tracking organizations that provide up-to-the-minute databases in order to render spam filtering simpler and more efficient without affecting genuine messages, even if they contain suspicious words or phrases.
Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting
If you get a cloud web hosting plan from us and if you make use of our mail services, you’ll be able to enable spam filters for any of the mailboxes that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. With no more than several clicks of the mouse, you can select between five different levels of safety. If you start receiving spam, you can begin with the lowest one and then gradually raise the level until you stop getting spam. We make use of one of the best and most popular spam filters available on the market called SpamAssassin. It analyzes the header section and the body of every email message that you receive and calculates a spam score, based on which it either deletes a certain email or permits it to enter your inbox. Hepsia will also permit you to activate custom email filters and either eliminate unwelcome messages or redirect them to a 3rd-party email address like spam@domain.com where you can check them once more afterwards.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you order a semi-dedicated server plan from our company and if you set up one or more email addresses with any of the domains hosted under the account, you’ll be able to activate the advanced, five-level SpamAssassin filter that we offer and keep all unsolicited emails away from your inbox. This feature 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 safety level with several clicks if spam emails continue to enter your inbox or the anti-spam filter starts removing legitimate messages. Since you can select whether the spam should be deleted instantly or delivered to some other mailbox, you can create spam@domain.com, for example, and check all filtered emails there, so as to make sure that you won’t omit an email message that you require. The emails that the anti-spam filter allows to proceed will still appear in your mailbox.
