Most of the email messages sent around the globe these days are spam, i.e. undesirable messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such email messages annoying, but they also present a threat to your own personal computer, not to mention that you may be scammed. This is why, plenty of email service providers rely on spam filters, which are applications that monitor all incoming emails and filter the undesirable ones based on their content – what words an email consists of and how often they are cited, what web site a specific link opens, what outgoing SMTP email server the email comes from, and so on. Certain web hosting companies also rely on the databases of spam-tracing organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute information about unasked-for messages, to make sure that their clients won’t get any email message in their inbox that is not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Web Hosting
If you get a web hosting plan from our company and if you take advantage of our mail services, you’ll be able to activate spam filters for any of the mailboxes that you create from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With just a couple of mouse clicks, you can select between five separate security levels. In case you start getting spam, you can begin with the lowest level and then gradually raise the level until you stop receiving spam. We rely on one of the best and most famous filters available called SpamAssassin. It checks the header section and the body of every email that you get and determines a spam score, based on which it either erases a specific email message or allows it to reach your inbox. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will also allow you to activate custom filters and either eliminate unasked-for messages or send them to a 3rd-party email address like spam@domain.com where you can check them once again at a later time.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you reach the decision to make use of the email service that is offered with our Linux semi-dedicated service, you can keep all unwanted email messages out of your mailbox by activating the 5-level spam protection that we provide with every semi-dedicated server package. This can be done through the feature-crammed Email Manager section of the Control Panel and we employ the powerful SpamAssassin email filter to make sure that we offer the very best possible protection for our clients. You can have a different anti-spam level for each email account and you can choose if the filtered email messages should be erased or delivered to a different mailbox where you can check them at a later time so as to ensure that you won’t skip legitimate email messages. Changing the level or deactivating the anti-spam protection is also easy and requires a couple of clicks of the mouse.
