Spam Filters
What precisely is an e-mail spam filter? How does one work? How do you enable spam filtering?
Most emails sent around the globe these days are spam, in other words – unrequested messages with different offers or with hyperlinks to malicious software. Not only are such emails annoying, but they also present a threat to your personal computer, not to mention that you may get tricked. This is why, numerous email providers make use of spam filters, which are software apps that keep track of all incoming messages and filter the undesired ones based on their content – what words or phrases an email contains and how often they are referred to, what web site a given hyperlink redirects to, what outgoing SMTP server the email message is sent from, and so on. Some web hosting companies also rely on the databases of spam-detecting organizations devoted to the provision of the most up-to-date info about unsolicited email messages, to make sure that their customers will not get any email in their mailbox that shouldn’t be there.

Spam Filters in Shared Website Hosting
The protection of any mailbox that you set up under a
shared website hosting account with our company is ensured by the powerful SpamAssassin email filter that we employ. You can activate it through the Email Manager section of your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and it offers 5 levels of protection based on the spam score given to each email in accordance with various parameters, such as the frequency of given words and phrases, the sender, etc. If you keep receiving unsolicited bulk email messages, you can always raise the level or if you are scared that you may miss a genuine email, you can combine the automated spam filter with a custom one and forward all email messages from a given sender to some other mailbox. If you reach the decision that you no longer need a spam filter for a certain email account, you can deactivate it with just several clicks of the mouse.
