An email filter is a software application that prevents undesired email messages from entering a given inbox. A large percentage of the email communication around the globe consists of spam messages: offers for pills or money, fake banking notifications, and so on. This is why, it’s pretty important to use email filters to avoid not only spam email messages, but also any chance of being swindled somehow. Spam filters detect various things, so as to ensure higher levels of safety – particular words and phrases or the frequency with which they occur in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s outbound email server. Hosting companies frequently resort to the services of 3rd-party spam-tracing organizations that provide up-to-date databases to make email filtering better and easier without affecting genuine messages, even if they comprise suspicious words.
Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting
The protection of any email account that you create under a cloud web hosting account with our company is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we employ. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with 5 levels of protection based on the spam score given to each and every message in accordance with various criteria, such as the recurrence of particular words, the sender, etc. If you keep receiving spam email messages, you can always raise the level or if you’re scared that you may skip a genuine message, you can combine the automatic email filter with a custom one and redirect all messages from a certain sender to another email account. In case you reach the decision that you no longer want anti-spam protection for a specific email account, you can deactivate it with only several clicks of the mouse.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages come with first-rate spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin spam filter, which ranks all inbound emails based on a spam score in accordance with parameters and patterns, such as the frequency of certain keywords, the subject, the sender, and so on. When you activate the filter for any mailbox through the Hepsia Control Panel’s Email Manager section, you can pick between five different protection levels – from very low to very high. If you keep getting unsolicited bulk emails, you can raise the level, or if authentic messages are blocked as spam, you can decrease it. Enabling or disabling the spam protection takes as little as two clicks of the mouse and you can select if the filtered emails should be erased instantaneously or if they should be redirected to a chosen mailbox where you can view them at a later point in time, so as to make certain that the messages that you need will not get lost.
