    Default Sending emails to /dev/null

    Hi all,

    I want to send some unwanted emails to /dev/null.

    Can this be done via de WHM? I tried to read the docs, but it only says: Documentation is currently being revised for upcoming cPanel 4.8 release and will be avalible very shortly

    So how do I do it? Do I just enter /dev/null in the textbox?

    Or if I have to edit valiases where are them? I looked under /etc/mail and /var/mail even /root/mail (This is my first linux server, I usually do solaris, so I'm quite lost here )

    Thanks in advance,
