Spam Filters
Learn more about spam filters - what they are, the way they work and how to set up one.
Most of the emails sent around the world these days are spam, in other words – unsolicited messages with various offers or with links to malware. Not only are such email messages irritating, but they also pose a risk to your PC, not to mention that you may be swindled. That’s why, a lot of email providers use email filters, which are applications that keep track of all incoming messages and filter the undesirable ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email message consists of and how often they’re mentioned, what web site a specific hyperlink points to, what outbound email server the message is sent from, and so on. Some web hosting providers also make use of the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to providing the most up-to-the-minute information about unwanted emails, to make certain that their customers won’t get any email message in their inbox that’s not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Web Hosting
If you reach the decision to host your domains with us and you select any of our web hosting plans, you will be able to enable spam filtering for any email address that you set up. With a couple of clicks of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can switch between five different levels of protection. If you continue to receive junk emails or the spam filters start preventing genuine email messages from reaching your mailbox, you can switch to a different level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam protection service is guaranteed by one of the most widely used spam filters – SpamAssassin. If you don’t want to risk skipping a genuine message that may be considered spam owing to its content, you can also set up custom filters based on the body, the sender or the subject of the email message and re-send the emails to a separate email address where you can examine them later.
