Most emails sent around the globe nowadays are spam, i.e. unrequested messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails aggravating, but they also present a threat to your own PC, not to mention that you may get duped. For this reason, numerous email service providers make use of email filters, which are software applications that keep track of all inbound emails and filter the unwanted ones based on their content – what words an email message consists of and how many times they’re referred to, what website a specific hyperlink opens, what SMTP server the message comes from, and so on. Some providers also make use of the databases of spam-tracking organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unasked-for messages, to ensure that their customers will not receive any message in their inbox that is not supposed to be there.

Spam Filters in Web Hosting

If you decide to host your domain names with our company and you select any of our web hosting packages, you will be able to enable spam filters for any email address that you create. With several clicks of the mouse in the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you can switch between 5 different levels of protection. If you still receive spam messages or the spam filters start preventing genuine emails from reaching your mailbox, you can switch to some other level just as easily. The efficiency of our spam detection service is guaranteed by one of the most famous email filters – SpamAssassin. If you do not want to risk skipping a legitimate message that may be classified as spam due to its content, you can also create custom email filters based on the sender, the body or the subject of the message and redirect the emails to a different email account where you can examine them at a later point in time.
