    Spam mail returns

    Anyone getting delivery failures in their inbox? As in... loads and loads per day?

    I asked Andrew about this previously and was told something about a script being run on my email or something (memory is bad).

    I would really like to stop all these emails, I just logged in and have had to delete approx 3000, that's from 10th Jan to today. It's clogging up my inbox and stopping me addressing genuine emails to me.

    1. how can I stop this?
    2. Is it worth using the spam filter, and if so, can someone link me to an instruction guide please?

    First and foremost make sure that you are not using the catch-all address on your domain. To disable it, login to cPanel and set the default address to :fail:

      Andrew,

      Would it be best to set it to :fail:, or to :blackhole:?

          Ok thanks, I've done this. Hopefully it helps!

          Just logged into my email and there's 750 approx, since I logged in last time!!
