How do you FLUSH qmails queued mail?

Greetings:

For selective flushing, see http://www.redwoodsoft.com/~dru/mailRemove/

Also see http://www.tnpi.biz/internet/mail/qqtool/docs.html

Thank you.

"killall -ALRM qmail-send" (that's with the GNU version of killall, mind you) will make qmail attempt to deliver all queued mail immediately.

There is a binary - qmailctl which can be used to flush queue. usage : qmailctl flush

Also search google for qmhandle. Very handy little script.

Besure to stop qmail before flushing.



#!/bin/bash

cd /var/qmail/queue/mess
for file in `find . -type f` ; do

echo $file ;

rm $file
rm ../info/$file
rm ../remote/$file

done




echo -n "Killing qmail."
killqmail=`ps auxc | grep qmail | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -i kill -9 {}`
echo " ..done"
echo -n "Killing tcpserver"
killtcpserver=`ps auxc | grep tcpserver | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -i kill -9 {}`
echo " ..done"

Try Qmail mailRemove.py a python script to remove the mails from queue.

1.download the script.
2.install and configure the script.

The below URL will provide enough details.

All the filtered emails are moved to filter directory. Could I remove them manually?
