Did you know that when you send an email, it goes through many steps before reaching its destination? Earthclick.net takes email security seriously. Unlike other providers (notably Google’s Gmail), we don’t scan your emails to target you with advertising. We backup your email inbox daily, so if you accidentally delete an important email, we can recover it for you. Finally, all emails are processed through a third party anti-spam/anti-virus service, which ensures that you get important emails and don’t get spammed to death. We utilized the latest in security options as well (SPF, DKIM, and TLS), which means that your inbound and outbound emails will be delivered.

One important step is filtering out spam and viruses to keep your inbox safe. To ensure the highest level of security for our users, we utilize several tools for protecting your emails.
- Inbound and Outbound Filtering
Our Email filter acts as a gatekeeper for your emails, both when they come into your inbox (inbound) and when you send them out (outbound). It scans every email for potential threats like spam, viruses, malware, and phishing attempts. By filtering out these harmful elements, it helps keep your inbox clean and protects you from cyber-attacks. - Quarantine
Sometimes, even with the best filters in place, a suspicious email might slip through. That’s where Proofpoint’s quarantine feature comes in handy. If an email is flagged as potentially harmful or suspicious, it is placed in a separate quarantine area instead of being delivered to your inbox. This extra layer of protection ensures that you don’t accidentally open or interact with dangerous emails. - White List and Black List
Proofpoint allows you to create white and black lists to further customize your email filtering experience. A white list is a list of trusted senders whose emails will always be delivered to your inbox, even if they might otherwise be flagged as suspicious. On the other hand, a black list consists of known spammers or malicious senders whose emails will be automatically blocked from reaching your inbox. - Continuity
One of our providers offers “continuity” in the event that our mail server isn’t reachable. This can occur for many reasons, such as equipment failure, widespread internet outage, or infrastructure/power failure. As long as you have Internet access, you can access your account to send and receive emails until the outage is resolved, and your mail begins flowing normally. - Optional Email Archiving
We use Proofpoint for its email archiving capability. Archiving means storing copies of your emails in a secure and easily accessible location. Proofpoint can store your emails for up to 10 years, ensuring that you never lose important messages or attachments. This feature is especially useful for businesses that need to comply with legal requirements or retain records for future reference. Why Email Archiving Matters:- Legal Compliance: Many industries have regulations that require businesses to retain certain types of communication, including emails, for a specific period. Proofpoint’s archiving feature helps companies meet these legal obligations.
- E-discovery: In legal cases, emails can be used as evidence. With Proofpoint’s email archiving, businesses can easily search and retrieve specific emails, even from years ago, saving time and effort during legal proceedings.
- Business Continuity: Accidental deletions, hardware failures, or natural disasters can result in the loss of important emails. With Proofpoint’s email archiving, you have a backup of all your emails, ensuring business continuity and preventing data loss.
As an ISP managing our own email server since 1996, we understand the importance of keeping your emails safe and secure. Proofpoint’s email archiving feature safeguards your messages for up to 10 years, meeting legal requirements and providing peace of mind. With Proofpoint as our trusted partner, we ensure that your emails are protected every step of the way.
