Spam Filters
What exactly is an e-mail spam filter? How does it operate? How do you activate spam filtering?
An email filter is an app that obstructs unsolicited emails from reaching a given mailbox. A considerable percentage of the email correspondence around the globe consists of spam email messages: offers for pills or cash, forged bank notifications, and so on. This is why, it’s pretty important to enable filters to avoid not only unsolicited bulk messages, but also any possibility of being conned somehow. Filters detect various things, so as to ensure higher levels of security – particular words and phrases or the frequency with which they surface in the text, the sender’s email address, or the IP of the sender’s outgoing email server. Web hosting providers often use the services of third-party spam-tracking organizations that offer up-to-date databases to make spam filtering easier and more effective without affecting genuine emails, even if they include suspicious words or phrases.

Spam Filters in Shared Hosting
The protection of any mailbox that you create in a
shared hosting account with us is guaranteed by the powerful SpamAssassin filter that we employ. You can activate it through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five levels of security based on the spam score it gives to each email in accordance with different criteria, such as the frequency of certain words and phrases, the sender, etc. If you keep receiving junk emails, you can always raise the level or if you’re afraid that you may omit an authentic email message, you can combine the automatic filter with a custom one and redirect all emails from a certain sender to a separate email address. In case you reach the decision that you no longer want a spam filter for a given email account, you can disable it with just a few clicks of the mouse.
