Get notifications for abusive email users – WHM

cPanel v66 introduced a new option – Number of emails a domain may send per day before the system sends a notification. With this option, the system will send you a message when a domain exceeds the specified number of daily emails.

cPanel Note: The system counts outbound mail from subdomains and addon domains separately from their parent domain.

  1. Log into WHM as root
  2. Go to Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings
  3. From the top menu click on the Mail tab
  4. Look for the option Number of emails a domain may send per day before the system sends a notification
  5. Choose Unlimited or enter a value (10,100 etc)
  6. Scroll down the page and click the Save button
  7. You will see the confirmation message:

    Your changes have been saved.

    Updating “Number of emails a domain may send per day before the system sends a notification.” from “10” to “100”.
    “Number of emails a domain may send per day before the system sends a notification.” was updated.
    Done.
