This is not likely a Joomla51 template issue but I don't know where else to ask...Thanks in advance.

Multiple spam emails (200 -300 per day) is being sent from a Joomla site I maintain, alamedadoula.com.
Using Joomla 3.9.13, J51_Resonate template.

When I set Global Config>Server>Mail Settings>Send Mail to NO the spam email is not sent.
When I set it ON I get the spam.
ReturnPath: zoey@alamedadoula.com
To: keith@keithvb.com (I'm the only user - super admin)

I need it turned on so that the online forms can function.

Email source is below:

Even if you don't use it you can try if it makes a difference when you activate Google ReCaptcha.

I have 1 contact, me. I've removed the contact and unpublished the form.
I'll wait and see what happens.

thanks again,

Keith

Hi Keith

How many contacts have you got set up on your site (Components -> Contacts -> Contacts)? First of all, try removing any you are not using.
