    In the specific users CPanel, you can do this in Account Level Filtering.

    Maybe there's a way to modify the config file at ssh level.

    Hello,

    You can create a custom Exim system filter file with the following code on your server to block mail with the subject.

    Code:
    if
  $header_subject: contains “YOUR SUBJECT TO BLOCK“
then
  fail text “Your mail is not welcome.”
seen finish
endif

    Hello :)

    To clarify, are you looking for a way to block emails with a specific subject for a single account or single email account? If so, are the account or user level filter options in cPanel helpful?

    Account Level Filtering

    Thank you.

    Hello :)

    Could you let us know the exact filter rule you created? Also, please use the "Account Level Filtering" option in cPanel to ensure all required files are populated correctly.

    Thank you.
