Spam Filters
Get familiar with e-mail spam filters, the things they do and how you can activate them.
Most of the email messages sent around the globe these days are spam, i.e. unwelcome messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also pose a threat to your personal computer, not to mention that you may be tricked. Because of this, a lot of email providers resort to spam filters, which are applications that keep track of all incoming emails and filter the undesired ones on the basis of their content – what words an email consists of and how often they are cited, what site a given hyperlink points to, what email server the email message is sent from, and so on. Certain providers also make use of the databases of spam-detecting organizations dedicated to the provision of the most up-to-the-minute information about unwelcome messages, to make certain that their customers won’t get any email message in their mailbox that’s not supposed to be there.
Spam Filters in Cloud Hosting
Our cloud hosting servers employ one of the very best spam filters available on the market. It is called SpamAssassin and is available with every cloud hosting plan, so if you host your domains with us, you can opt for one of the five levels of safety that the spam filter offers for any email account that you have here. You can do this with just two mouse clicks from the Email Manager section of the Hepsia Control Panel that’s used to manage all shared accounts. SpamAssassin analyzes the header field and the content of each and every message, gives it a spam score and then continues based on the level that you’ve opted for. Every email account can have a different setting and you can choose whether the email messages that the filter classifies as spam should be erased or redirected to another email address where you can review them at a later point in time, so as to avoid deleting a genuine email. Changing the level or disabling the anti-spam protection is also quite easy.
