I have configured my server prevent "nobody" from sending email ON But my ISP sends the mail through a smarthost, and nobody user can send emails. As I can prevent that nobody send emails if the server has smarthost?

  Hello, Which php handler are you using on your server ? Preventing the nobody system user from sending mail will be work when PHP and CGI scripts generally run as nobody when the system is using mod_php, or when suEXEC is disabled on the server. If you enable SuExec and SuPHP so that scripts should no longer be running as user nobody. Instead, these scripts run as the actual cPanel user.

  Hello :) I suggest implementing rules on the smart host to prevent outgoing emails from certain users such as "nobody". Thank you.
