Most emails sent around the globe nowadays are spam, i.e. undesirable messages with various offers or with hyperlinks to malware. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also pose a risk to your PC, not to mention that you may be duped. This is the reason why numerous email providers resort to spam filters, which are apps that keep track of all inbound messages and filter the undesired ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email includes and how often they’re cited, what site a given link redirects to, what outbound email server the message is sent from, and so on. Certain web hosting companies also make use of the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unwelcome emails, to make sure that their customers won’t get any email message in their mailbox that shouldn’t be there.
Spam Filters in Cloud Website Hosting
Our cloud website hosting servers rely on one of the very best anti-spam filters available on the market. It is called SpamAssassin and is available with each web hosting package, so in case you host your domain names with us, you can choose one of the five security levels that the spam filter offers for any email account that you have here. You can do this with only 2 clicks from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia hosting Control Panel that is used to manage all web hosting accounts. SpamAssassin checks the header section and the content of each and every email message, calculates a spam score and then continues in accordance with the level that you’ve chosen. Each email account can have a different level and you can choose if the messages that the filter considers as spam should be deleted or delivered to a separate email address where you can view them later, so as to avoid erasing a legitimate email message. Switching to a different level or disabling the protection is also unbelievably easy.
Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you decide to use the mail service that comes with our Linux semi-dedicated plans, you can keep all unsolicited email messages out of your mailbox by enabling the 5-level spam protection that we provide with each semi-dedicated hosting plan. This can be done via the feature-rich Email Manager section of the Control Panel and we rely on the powerful SpamAssassin email filter to ensure that we provide the best possible protection for our clients. You can have a different protection level for each email account and you can select whether the filtered email messages should be deleted or delivered to some other mailbox where you can check them at a later point in time in order to make certain that you are not losing genuine email messages. Switching to another level of protection or deactivating the protection is also easy and requires a couple of mouse clicks.
