Defined email addresses file/db location

[AndyB78]

Hello,

Where should I look for the email addresses defined in cPanel? Is there a file or a db where they are all listed? I know there is the /home/user/mail/domain folder that contains the new/ cur/ etc folders. I don't mean this. I mean where does cPanel records the email addresses created for a domain/account?

And now why I am asking this: I have a customer that did something (I am not sure what) and now besides all the valid emails, there is one weird @domain.com address (it simply appers like that above all the valid email addresses). No user before @. Just @domain.com. Where should I look for it and delete that leftover?

Regards!

To clarify, is this seen as an e-mail forwarder or an e-mail account?

There is a YAML file that contains a list of the current e-mail accounts, but care should be taken if attempting to edit it so as to preserve the syntax and format of the data without introducing corruption. The file is stored in a path like the following example (where "username" is the cPanel account username):

/home/username/.cpanel/email_accounts.yaml

Please save a fresh backup before attempting any modification, so that there is something to revert to if the need arises; via root SSH access, a command such as the following will save a backup copy (where "username" is the cPanel account username):

# cp -pv /home/username/.cpanel/email_accounts.yaml /home/username/.cpanel/email_accounts.yaml.backup

Hello Don,

Thanks - it worked!

By the way...it was an email account not a forwarder.

Best Regards!
