It is happening all too often now and I was wondering if someone can explain how to stop this by chance.

Thank you

It's spammers trying to spam through an old exploit on cpanel boxes. The exploit isn't there anymore so the emails bounce back. Cpanel released a fix to block these type of email. Any servers that didn't have I just went through and activated it on.

I have received those type of emails too.

At first I thought it was some a virus (I don't know why I thought that), but now whenever I get them, they are slightly annoying.

Been a while since I can remember getting one..
