Re: [Mailman-Users] clear queue
well actually the problem is that SMTP server was not accepting messages postfix crashed because there was a faulty db file, after fixing it, I noticed that an old feed is being dustributed by mailman and the new feeds are not.. I wanted to clear the mailman's queue to send the new feeds and found an 'out' directory and cleared all its contents which fixed the problem.. -Original Message- From: Stephen J.
