Need Help To Stop Getting Spam

[greenworld]

hello;

I started to get some spam to my email, which was directed to couple of email that i had not set up ,

 

like accouting at mydomain, account at mydomain, etc..

I did follow the tutorial and put ":fail: no such address here"

 

in default email setting ( without the quote),

it did not stop it and I am getting even more.

 

any way to prevent this?

 

some of the spam email was directed to eamil that I had as forwarders, support at, service at,

today I did delete those forwarders and made new one that could be guessed easily.

 

appreciate your help.

You should use just :fail:

Do not add *no such address here*.

spam is an evil fact of internet life.

 

As Curtis says just enter :fail:

In cPanel mail Default Address Mail, it gives two options,

 

 

 

Hint: You can enter :blackhole: to discard all incoming unrouted mail or :fail: no such address here to bounce it.

If you wish to send to multiple address, please seperate them with a comma (,)

 

 

 

which is why everyone that is doing this is putting the second option :fail:no such address here, maybe that needs to be addressed with cPanel people to make that clearer in its use.
