Site5 shared hosting package is complete with email spam guard and spam protection. Supprisingly, site5 are offering comprehensive email protection features, that also offering high level of customization. For example, you can block spam mail based on email header, from sender, to, subject line keyword etc. Following are the sample email filter that you can setup to block lotter spam emails & drug selling spam mails.

• $header_from: matches “drug”
• $header_subject: contains “lottery”

Beside that, site 5 email spam protection also complete with spam assassin. A very famous email filtering and spam guard that you can easily find in cpanel control panel. Your spam mail that had been identified will be route to spam box, something similar to spam queue, and you can manually review them to confirm the spam mails.

“The Spam Box feature allows emails identified as spam by SpamAssassin to be delivered to a separate mail folder named “spam”. Spam Assassin must be enabled for this feature to work.

If this folder is not regularly checked and emptied, it may cause your email or filesystem quotas to be exceeded, resulting in a failure to receive legitimate messages. You can easily use IMAP or Horde/IMP to check messages that are routed to this box. If you wish to use POP3 to check the spam box, just add “/spam” (without the quotes) to the end of your POP3 login. (Example: user@domain.tld/spam).

This feature’s use is generally discouraged in favor of sorting and deleting spam messages using your mail client. Without Spam Box you can configure SpamAssassin to mark your email with an identifying subject (e.g. ***SPAM***), which can then be filtered out into an appropriate location.“

A moment ago, i was reviewing site5 email features. Now i am moving to the site5 webmail feature. To get to webmail, login to site5 backstage, and browse to email centre. Click the read webmail link. You will get to the webmail login and selection page after this. Following are the message that you will see:

“Note: This feature only logs in the master POP email account. If you wish to read webmail for any other POP email account, please follow the link in the “Manage Email Accounts” page by clicking on the small envelopes to the right of the POP account listing for the email account in question, or by visiting http://yourdomain.com/webmail/ and fill in your full POP email address as the username and its password to log in.”

Both horde mail and squirrelmail webmail client are provided. Choose your favourite webmail and login to your email accounts. From my findings, site5 webmail is easy to use, and works fine. No problem was found during the short review of site5 email and site5 webmail.
