I am attempting to change the email address where the "HG:DED lfd" email addresses get mailed to but am not finding them anywhere within the system. I have LF_ALERT_TO sent to my email address and my email address set up in Edit System Mail Preferences, and yet they are still going to the wrong email address. Where am I missing this setting? Thank you

Guess you restarted CSF after the change of LF_ALERT_TO :rolleyes:

We may still be able to help, I just wanted that to be known before we got too deep :D

When you say it's going to the "wrong" email address, it's being sent to somewhere different than the address you have configured in the WHM >> Basic WebHost Manager Setup page?

Here's the relevant configuration option from the /etc/csf/csf.conf file:

Code:
###############################################################################
# SECTION:Reporting Settings
###############################################################################
# By default, lfd will send alert emails using the relevant alert template to
# the To: address configured within that template. Setting the following
# option will override the configured To: field in all lfd alert emails
#
# Leave this option empty to use the To: field setting in each alert template
LF_ALERT_TO = ""
Do you have anything specified in that area of the file?
