Where are email individual filters stored?

[Speed Total]

Hi all,

I am looking for a solution on the new hacking way of the emails.
The attacker gains access to the target email with password and puts forwards and email filters.

I have two questions.

1. How can I disable the forward and email filter buttons from the menu so only the domain admin can manage this?
2. Where are email individual filters stored? in /etc/vfilters/domain are only the global ones, and valiases are just forwards

Thanks.

You can disable forwarders and email filters via the feature manager in WHM.

Individual filters are created in /home/$user/etc/$domain/$localpart/

Hi Lucas,

Thanks for your response. The 1st point works perfect. I have never thought about that.

Works perfect for now.

Hi LucasRolff,

found
/home/$user/etc/$domain/$localpart/filter
OK,
Is there a cmd line command to regenerate the corresponding .cache and .yaml files ?

Thanks

There is not, if you remove the filter you would want to remove the cache and yaml files as well (if you're doing this manually) this is all automatically done if you use the UAPI function or the Interface
