If you’re an R4L customer using one of our combined web and email hosting packages, BoxTrapper is an aggressive spam filtering service that can help defeat spammers.

How it Works

When we receive new email for your account from an address you have not whitelisted, BoxTrapper will hold the email in a pending list.  For the email to make it to your inbox, one of two things needs to happen:

1. The sender confirms they are a human sending email and not a spam bot.  This is done via an email that is sent back to the sender with a link to a page on your website to confirm.
2. You review your list of “trapped” mail, select the email and click the option to Whitelist and Deliver.

Every registered domain name has a Whois record which will contain contact for the registrant (owner), administrator, billing and technical contact.  For each of these contact positions (they can be the same), the Whois record will contain:

• individual’s first and last name
• organization’s name
• postal address
• phone number and optional fax number
• email address

Additionally, the Whois record will contact contact information for the domain’s registrar, and the domain’s creation date, expiry date, name server names and IP addresses, the domain’s status and the date the record was last updated.
