Spam Filters
Find out more about spam filters - precisely what they are, how they work and the way to create one.
Most of the email messages sent around the world these days are spam, in other words – unrequested messages with different offers or with links to malicious software. Not only are such email messages aggravating, but they also present a threat to your own computer, not to mention that you may get ripped off. That’s the reason why lots of email service providers rely on email filters, which are apps that keep track of all inbound messages and filter out the undesirable ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email contains and how many times they are cited, what website a specific link opens, what SMTP email server the email message is sent from, etc. Certain providers also rely on the databases of spam-monitoring organizations dedicated to providing the most up-to-date info about unwanted email messages, to make certain that their clients will not get any message in their mailbox that shouldn’t be there.

Spam Filters in Cloud Web Hosting
If you order a
cloud web hosting package from us and if you make use of our email services, you will be able to set up spam filtering for any of the mailboxes that you set up from the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With only several clicks of the mouse, you can choose between 5 different levels of protection. If you start getting spam, you can begin with the lowest level and then slowly raise the level till you stop receiving spam. We use one of the very best and most famous spam filters available on the market called SpamAssassin. It ‘scans’ the header and the body of each email that you receive and calculates a spam score, based on which it either deletes a given email message or allows it to enter your inbox. Hepsia will also allow you to activate custom spam filters and either delete unasked-for emails or forward them to a third-party address like spam@domain.com where you can read them once more after that.
