Re: LDF - Excessive resource usage spamd

I came across this post searching for the same exe.

Other posts said to just whitelist it. It is my understanding that this has something to do with email. What if I do get hacked and some other file starts sending email, will it not use this same process?

Re: DirectAdmin virtual domain error logs not included.

Re: Login Failure Daemon or Login Tracking?

I think CSF should be reading the error logs of all the sites. How do I get CSF to read/monitor extra logs? And better yet, with a wild card?
