    On one of my domains I've had issues for several months now with receiving email. I would like to know how I can figure out if my domain or server IP is banned/blacklisted somewhere... cause I am thinking I need to move my site, I've only had this issue since moving my site to another host.

    Also, I got spam email from my own email... does this me someone's spamming as me? Can I stop it? If so, how?

    I have cPanel hosting, I use pop3 to send and receive.

    Thank you for addressing my problem. The thing is I don't always know what the address will be as this email address is connected to my contact form and I believe I am losing tons of possible clients because their email doesn't reach me.

    Well test the contact form....

    You should be able to get error logs from your control panel.

    But i highly doubt that your host is blocking people who are trying to send email... via your contact form.

    Its more likely your contact form is not working properly, or your host is playing with there forms of sending mail via web code. = Monkey admins.
