Hello, I think your cPanel user is sending all these mails through php script. Could your please try to disable php mail function for your this user and check this.

Hello. Putting a php.ini ( edited with disable_functions = mail, sendmail ) in forum folder under root permission worked. He was not able to send any more spam mail.
