Hi all,
I upgraded fron 1.1.1 to 1.2.5 last wednesday and every thing went ok and the forum is running without any issue. But suddenly yesterday thousands of spam emails going out of my dedicated server and when I check WHM in the Mail Queue Manager I see many emails waiting to to be sent as shown on the attached image.
I tried to track down the source of those emails as suggested on this website:
http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/email/exim/find-spam-script-location-with-exim
using the command:
grep cwd /var/log/exim_mainlog | grep -v /var/spool | awk -F"cwd=" '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
and the output is:
1482 email is being sent from my xenforo community and it wasnt me who is sending those emails. is there any new email features in xf1.2.5 that send auto emails? I am realy lost here
my forum is large
