Hello everybody,
We have a problem with the email spoofing and spam emails, so, as a partial solution, we decided to update WHM from the current version 60.0)to the latest available version 76.0.12. There are a lot of security patches and fixes between our current WHM version and the latest one, the same situation with the Exim SMTP software. That's why I believe that such update can be useful in fighting with the email spoofing and spam emails.
Our server hosts a lot of websites, accounts and mailboxes and, of course, we don't want to face any troubles or data loss because this update. So my question is: are there any known pitfalls for such update of the WHM? Is there anything I can do before the update to make the entire process quicker and safer for the data? Of course, I plan to create and secure the daily backup of the user accounts and the existing DBs made by cPanel.
Our current setup:
Thank you for help.
