I have stopped Exim and POP, my Directadmin is running only web, for eg my domain abc.com in Directadmin, if I send form to say [email protected] , it will go to the locally DA created POP account, not to my external [email protected]. I cannot seem to be able to delete the locally created DA account how do you solve this problem?
 
If the domain user on your DA system is "abc" then exim will always try to deliver mail to abc. Since abc is a system user changing the behavior will require a custom change to exim.conf.

It's probably easier to either to forward the email from the form to a different address, to have the user also read the email account on your server, or to use a different username for the domain.

(Using a different username for the domain will require recreation of the user and domain.)
