is "ServerAdmin [email protected]" required in the VirtualHost in Apache?

I rather not have

 ServerAdmin

in my VirtualHost because all it does is attract spam.

has no use what so ever.

can it be ignored ?


Solution 1:

You do not need it.

I just checked on a server with over a hundred apache virtual domains, none of them have ServerAdmin defined. The ServerAdmin is commented out in the main config file (httpd.conf) and I guess there hasn't been a problem so far.

In fact it seems like apache no longer displays the ServerAdmin in any event?
