Most emails sent around the globe nowadays are spam, in other words – unasked-for messages with different offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also pose a risk to your computer, not to mention that you may be tricked. This is the reason why lots of email service providers use email filters, which are software apps that ‘scan’ all incoming emails and filter out the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words an email includes and how many times they are referred to, what site a specific hyperlink leads to, what outbound mail server the message comes from, etc. Certain web hosting providers also rely on the databases of spam-tracing organizations devoted to providing the most up-to-date information about unrequested emails, to ensure that their clients won’t get any email message in their inbox that should not be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Web Hosting

The security of any email account that you create in a shared web hosting account with us is guaranteed by the advanced SpamAssassin spam 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 security based on the spam score given to each email message depending on different parameters, such as the frequency of specific words and phrases, the sender, and so on. If you keep receiving spam messages, you can always increase the level or if you’re scared that you may skip a legitimate message, you can combine the automatic spam filter with a custom one and redirect all emails from a particular sender to a different email account. If you reach the decision that you no longer require an email filter for a given mailbox, you can disable it with only a couple of clicks.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Servers

In case you decide to use the mail service that is offered with our semi-dedicated servers, you can keep all unwanted emails out of your mailbox by activating the 5-level anti-spam protection that we offer with each semi-dedicated plan.

You can have a different level of protection for each mailbox and you can select if the filtered messages should be deleted or forwarded to a different email address where you can check them later to make certain that you will not lose genuine email messages. Switching to another level of protection or disabling the spam protection is also easy and requires a couple of mouse clicks.
