An email filter is an app that prevents unwanted emails from reaching a given inbox. A substantial percentage of the email correspondence around the world consists of spam emails: offers for pills or money, fake banking notifications, etc. That is why, it is extremely important to activate email filters in order to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any chance of being tricked somehow. Spam filters detect different things, so as to ensure higher levels of safety – 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 SMTP server. Hosting companies frequently rely on the services of third-party spam-tracking organizations that provide up-to-the-minute databases to make email filtering simpler and more effective without affecting legitimate messages, even if they comprise suspicious words.

In case you start receiving spam, you can start with the lowest level and then gradually raise the level till you stop receiving spam. We make use of one of the very best and most famous spam filters available on the market called SpamAssassin. It checks the header and the body of every message that you get and calculates a spam score, based on which it either deletes a specific email message or allows it to reach your inbox.

Spam Filters in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server plans provide top-level anti-spam protection guaranteed by the popular SpamAssassin anti-spam filter, which rates all inbound email messages based on a spam score in accordance with parameters and patterns, such as the recurrence of certain keywords, the sender, the subject, etc. When you activate the filter for any email account via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel, you can choose between five separate levels – from very high to very low. If you continue to get unsolicited bulk emails, you can raise the level, or if legitimate messages are flagged as spam, you can lower it. Enabling or disabling the anti-spam protection requires as little as 2 mouse clicks and you can select if the filtered emails should be deleted straight away or if they should be delivered to a chosen mailbox where you can review them at a later time, so as to make certain that important emails won’t get lost.
