No, jam on a cake board would not make a fruit cake go mouldy. Keeping the fruit cake too long in a place that is warm and moist makes it go mouldy. Fruit cake should be stored in a tin in a cool, dry, dark place or refrigerated. Soaking a fruit cake with rum, brandy or other liquor also prevents spoilage.

Why do you have to use apricot glaze on a fruitcake because I forgot to do it?

You do it for no other reason than to help make a covering layer or decoration adhere - In a Xmas cake this might be marzipan followed by Royal icing. If you're putting blanched almonds or other fruit and nuts on the cake the apricot glaze helps them adhere and then more is brushed over the topping to give it a golden veneer. It willmake no real difference to your cake if you forgot the apricot glaze. Many people pick off the marzipan and icing anyway.
