Most of the email messages sent around the globe nowadays are spam, in other words – undesirable messages with different offers or with links to malware. Not only are such emails irritating, but they also present a risk to your computer, not to mention that you may get tricked. For this reason, a lot of email providers use email filters, which are software applications that monitor all inbound emails and filter the undesirable ones on the basis of their content – what words an email message consists of and how many times they’re cited, what site a specific hyperlink opens, what outgoing SMTP mail server the email message is sent from, and so on. Some web hosting providers also make use of the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-the-minute information about undesirable emails, to make sure that their customers will not receive any email in their mailbox that should not be there.

If you order a hosting plan from our company and if you use our mail services, you’ll be able to set up spam filtering for any of the mailboxes that you create from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel. With just several clicks of the mouse, you can select between five different safety levels. If you start receiving spam, you can begin with the lowest one and then gradually boost the level till you stop receiving spam. We make use of one of the best and most famous email filters out there called SpamAssassin. It ‘scans’ the header field and the body of each and every email message that you receive and determines a spam score, based on which it either deletes a particular email message or allows it to reach your inbox. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will also allow you to create custom spam filters and either delete unwelcome messages or redirect them to a third-party address such as spam@domain.com where you can examine them once again at a later time.
