Most of the email messages sent around the world these days are spam, i.e. unsolicited messages with different offers or with links to malware. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also present a threat to your PC, not to mention that you may get scammed. Because of this, many email service providers make use of email filters, which are applications that keep track of all inbound messages and filter out the unwanted ones on the basis of their content – what words or phrases an email consists of and how often they are mentioned, what web site a given hyperlink leads to, what outbound email server the email is sent from, etc. Some web hosting providers also use the databases of spam-tracing organizations devoted to providing the most up-to-date information about undesirable email messages, to make certain that their customers won’t receive any message in their mailbox that is not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Shared Hosting
The security of any email account that you set up in a shared hosting account with us is guaranteed by the powerful SpamAssassin spam filter that we use. You can activate it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with five protection levels based on the spam score it gives to each and every email depending on different parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words and phrases, the sender, etc. If you keep getting spam email messages, you can always raise the level or if you’re scared that you may skip a legitimate email message, you can combine the automated email filter with a custom one and forward all email messages from a certain sender to a separate email address. In case you decide that you no longer want an email filter for a particular email account, you can disable it with no more than a few mouse clicks.
