  Hello, A virtual email account is one that's created as an email address in cPanel. A non-virtual email account is typically a system account (e.g. the cPanel account username). You'd typically see the non-virtual delivery in cases where the "Default Address" option for the domain name in cPanel is configured to send unrouted email to the account username. In the following example, "test1@cptest01.tld[/EMAIL]" exists as an email account, "does-not-exist@cptest01.tld[/EMAIL]" does not exist as an email account, and the "Default Address" for cptest01.tld in cPanel is configured as "Forward to your system account":
  # exim -bt test1@cptest01.tld test1@cptest01.tld router = virtual_user, transport = dovecot_virtual_delivery_no_batch

# exim -bt does-not-exist@cptest01.tld cptest01@hostname <-- does-not-exist@cptest01.tld router = localuser, transport = dovecot_delivery_no_batch
  Thank you.

  Hello, Yes, it's normal to see those entries. It's differentiating between virtual and non-virtual email accounts. Thank you.
