Disable emails from going to Junk folder on webmail

altinix
Hello, I'm having an issue regarding some legitimate emails going to the Junk folder on webmail, and as a result, I can't pull these emails using POP3, (because this checks only Inbox folder). These emails are legitimate ones, like from CPHulk, or of the same domain as my email address. This issue started a few days ago, I think when cPanel updated to version WHM 62.0 (build 10) As of now, it is only me who has emails delivered to Junk folder. Other accounts don't have this issue...as of now. (the same email is being delivered to them in Inbox). I have deleted and setup the account from the start on cPanel. Tried to setup some spam filter to be delivered to the INbox folder. Restarted Exim service. Tried unsubsribing the Junk folder but emails keep getting there. Disabled SpamAssasin on this domain, but none of them work. Any suggestion how to resolve this? Also, with exigrep I see this issue like being delivered like below: (haven't seen this before) /home/cpanel_account/mail/domain/user_address/

    My address is altini@example.al[/EMAIL]. These CP Hulk emails are sent to an alias backbone1@example.al[/EMAIL] and my address and elis.koci@example.al[/EMAIL] are members of this alias. Elis.koci has no issues.

    I haven't created any filters for incoming spam like the logs are stating:
    /home/example/mail/example.al/altini/ (altini@example.al, backbone1@example.al) R=virtual_user_filter T=address_directory

    Since the Route is indicating as ( R=virtual_user_filter) it's an email account level filter, please check the path /home/example/etc/example.al/(filtername) to identify it or via the cpanel email filters . Either way an email level filtering is triggering here.

    I have already deleted the account, and did setup a new one. There are no email filters created for the account. It's just a newly account. Also the path /home/example/etc/example.al/altini is empty. Is there any way to look any more deep for these filters?

    Hello, This turned out to be an issue with a local email client filtering the messages, as opposed to the server or cPanel filtering the message. Try changing the password to the email account and testing with individual email clients to determine which one is filtering the message. Thank you.
