I deleted some old email accounts and thought that was the end of them. However, I began noticing that some, not all are still getting mail in the /var/www/spool/mail directories. If I don't keep an eye on them they get pretty big in size because of spam. I can delete the file(s) and low and behold as soon as an email comes through the file is back. I tried removing permissions, but STILL the email continues to come through. I tried removing ALL instances of the user accounts and I'll be damned if they don't show back up as soon as an email comes through. Does anybody have a clue on this? Thanks in advance!
Which mailer daemon do you use? Maildir, mbox, or ... ? Do you mean /var/spool/mail (subject) or /var/www/spool/mail (body) or might it be /var/mail (where mbox-mail lives)? Paul
