Spam Bounce-backs From Your Site

Updated 2 July 2026

If you receive delivery failure notices for emails you did not send, your site may be sending spam via a compromised form or plugin.

When this happens, the priority is securing the site and your domain's email reputation before more damage is done.

Immediate actions

  • Scan for malware and unknown admin users.
  • Update all plugins and themes.
  • Add SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records.
  • Review form plugins for abuse or missing CAPTCHA.

Shield Pro includes malware prevention. See Fixing a Hacked Site.
