An email filter is an app that impedes undesired email messages from reaching a given inbox. A huge percentage of the email traffic around the globe consists of spam email messages: offers for pills or cash, sham banking notifications, etc. That is why, it is quite important to set up filters in order to avoid not only spam messages, but also any chance of being scammed somehow. Spam filters detect various things, so as to guarantee better protection – particular words or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s outgoing server. Web hosts often use the services of 3rd-party spam-detecting organizations that offer up-to-the-minute databases in order to render spam filtering easier and more effective without affecting authentic email messages, even if they comprise suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Web Hosting

If you reach the decision to host your domains with us and you pick any of our web hosting, you will be able to activate anti-spam protection for any email account that you set up. With several mouse clicks in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can configure 5 different levels of security. In case you continue to get unsolicited bulk messages or the spam filters start preventing authentic emails from entering your inbox, you can switch to another level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam protection service is guaranteed by one of the most popular filters – SpamAssassin. If you don’t want to risk omitting an authentic email message that may be regarded as spam owing to its content, you can also configure custom email filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the message and re-send the emails to a separate email account where you can check them at a later time.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you take advantage of one of our semi-dedicated servers, you will not need to worry about junk messages clogging your mailboxes all the time, as you can take advantage of the famous SpamAssassin email filter that we provide with every account. Our custom-created Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to activate the filter for any mailbox with a few clicks of the mouse and you can select any of the five safety levels – from very low to very high. The level can be changed at any moment if, for example, authentic emails get filtered, or if junk emails go through and appear in your Inbox folder. To be on the safe side, you can choose all filtered messages to be forwarded to a special email account like spam@your-domain.com and not to be erased. In this way, you can examine them from time to time to make sure that you have not missed out on an authentic message.
