  Hello, The command you used is showing message deliveries as referenced in /var/log/exim_mainlog. This is not an indicator that the messages exist in your mail queue. You can browse to "WHM Home " Email " Mail Queue Manager" to view and search emails in your actual queue. As far as the source of outgoing SPAM, the "/etc/csf" entries likely correspond to notification emails sent out by your CSF application, and the "/" emails likely correspond to cPanel & WHM notification emails. If you'd like to search for sources of SPAM, try some of the commands referenced on these threads: Need to catch the Spamming Source Locate spam activity Thank you.
