Is there a way to remove the default mailbox? I stick to my primary sbc email and have it all forwarded. I didn't realize that all the email to the domain still went to the site. I just checked for the first time in almost a year and have a few thousand emails unread in my site webmail.

I'm talking about the default usercom email. It stores all the errors, etc such as failed emails to forum members.

Are you using cPanel?

Yes

Ok, just change it to "fail: no such address here"

Change what?

Login to cPanel > Mail > Default Address > Set Default Address > Select the Domain from the Dropdown Menu and Type ":fail: no such address here" in the box > Click the Change Button

Cheers.

I already have that set to my default email. No reason it should still be sent to the site email right?

Yes, correct!

So any idea why it still does so then?

Check your mail forwarders. Other than that, it can't be. :smile:

Nope - none of the forwarders have problems. I have a catch-all set up as well so it can't be ppl sending to non-existing addresses.

I'm thinking these are bounceback emails for stuff like forums, where the forum sends out activation emails and the member puts in fake emails or something.
