Mail Protection
Junk and malware never make it to your inbox
Incoming mail passes through two layers of scanning, everything outgoing routes through MailChannels, and SPF, DKIM and DMARC keep your domain's reputation solid — all included with your hosting.
2-layer
Covers mail moving both ways
SPF · DKIM · DMARC
Standard authentication, every mailbox
MailChannels
Dedicated relay for outgoing mail
24/7
Always-on protection, day and night
The Payoff
A tidier inbox and mail that actually arrives
Defense for incoming mail and reputation care for outgoing mail, working as a team on every mailbox you own.
Junk mail turned away at the gate
Every message is graded on sender reputation, wording and behavior patterns, so anything suspicious sits in quarantine long before it shows up in your inbox.
Attachments checked for malware
Files and payloads riding along with incoming mail are checked against current threat signatures, so infected attachments and phishing links get stopped before they land.
Outbound mail via MailChannels
Everything you send goes out through MailChannels, which protects the shared sending reputation so your real messages don't get lost in spam folders.
Built-in sender authentication
We configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC records for your domain, giving receiving servers proof your mail is genuine and shutting the door on spoofers.
Threat data refreshed constantly
Rule sets and signature databases update around the clock, so newly launched spam runs get caught automatically — no action needed from you.
No impact on site speed
All the scanning takes place at the mail gateway rather than on your website, so your pages and control panel stay just as fast.
Coming In
Spam and malware caught before they reach your inbox
Nothing reaches your inbox unchecked. Each message is evaluated for sender reputation, content and attachment safety, and anything resembling spam, malware or a phishing attempt gets held in quarantine instead — keeping your inbox reserved for mail that actually matters.
- Scored on reputation and content
- Real-time virus and malware checks
- Detects phishing and spoofed senders
- Questionable mail held for review
Going Out
MailChannels gets your outgoing mail delivered
Mail sent from a shared server only helps if it lands where it's supposed to. Your outgoing messages travel through MailChannels, a relay built specifically to protect sending reputation — so things like invoices, password resets and newsletters end up in the inbox rather than the spam folder.
- A relay built just for sending
- Sending reputation stays protected
- Fewer messages marked as spam
- Delivery you can count on
Trust & Delivery
Verified mail that inbox providers can trust
Getting mail delivered is really about earning trust. We configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC on your domain and align your reverse DNS, giving receiving mail servers solid proof that your messages are legitimate. That means better inbox placement right away and a sending reputation that only gets stronger.
- SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up for you
- Reverse DNS properly aligned
- Domain spoofing shut down
- Sender trust that builds over time
Threats Stopped
What never makes it through
Junk and mass mailings
Unwanted newsletters, scams and bulk blasts get scored and routed to quarantine instead of landing in your inbox.
Phishing and impersonation
Senders pretending to be someone else and links designed to steal logins get flagged before your team ever sees them.
Malware-laden attachments
Risky file types and recognized malware are removed right at the gateway, keeping infections off your devices.

FAQ
Common questions about mail filtering
Does hosting come with mail filtering included?
Yes — inbound spam and virus scanning along with MailChannels outbound delivery are already active on any mailbox hosted with us, at no added charge. There's nothing extra to purchase and nothing separate to set up.
What does MailChannels actually do?
MailChannels is a purpose-built relay for outgoing mail. Routing your messages through it protects the sending IP's reputation, which makes it much less likely that other mail providers will flag your legitimate emails as spam.
Could a real email get flagged by mistake?
Occasionally, yes — that's exactly why anything suspicious is quarantined instead of deleted outright. You're able to check held messages and release any that were flagged incorrectly, and the filter adjusts based on the choices you make.
What do SPF, DKIM and DMARC actually protect?
These three records confirm that mail sent under your domain name genuinely came from you. Having all three configured stops spammers from impersonating your address and helps inbox providers trust — and deliver — your messages.
Does any of this slow down my site or my mail?
No. All scanning happens at the mail gateway, entirely separate from your website, so your pages and control panel run at normal speed and messages still deliver quickly.
Do I need to change how I check email?
Not at all. Filtering runs quietly in the background, so you can keep using webmail, Outlook, Apple Mail or any IMAP or POP client exactly like you do now.
