Spam Filters
Get familiar with e-mail spam filters, what they do and how you can activate them.
A spam filter is an app that prevents unsolicited emails from reaching a given inbox. A considerable percentage of the email traffic around the world consists of spam email messages: offers for pills or money, forged bank notifications, etc. This is why, it is quite important to enable filters in order to avoid not only spam emails, but also any chance of being tricked in some way. Email filters detect various things, so as to guarantee higher levels of security – particular words or the frequency with which they appear in the text, the sender’s address, or the IP of the sender’s outbound mail server. Hosting companies often make use of the services of third-party spam-tracing organizations that offer up-to-the-minute databases to render email filtering easier and more efficient without affecting genuine email messages, even if they include suspicious words.

Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting
The safety of any mailbox that you set up in a
cloud hosting account with our company is guaranteed by the advanced SpamAssassin filter that we use. You can enable it via the Email Manager section of your Hepsia Control Panel and it comes with 5 protection levels based on the spam score given to every message depending on different parameters, such as the recurrence of specific words and phrases, the sender, and so on. If you keep receiving unsolicited bulk emails, you can always increase the level or if you are scared that you may skip a legitimate email, you can mix the automatic spam filter with a custom one and redirect all messages from a given sender to some other mailbox. If you decide that you no longer require a spam filter for a particular mailbox, you can disable it with no more than a couple of clicks of the mouse.
