Hi,

I'm trying to clean up my system because it is bogged down
with about 100,000 junk messages in the mailq. 

I've already identified all of the message ids that I want
to get rid of, and actually I've already issued a cancelmsg
command for all of these... 

However, I'm not sure exactly how cancelmsg works, and I
still see the messages in mailq.

Isn't there a way to simply delete the messages directly?
I'm guessing if I delete the appropriate files from the msgq
and msgs directories, that would work?

But obviously I'm afraid of screwing something up.

If it is "safe" to delete the files (control + data), how
can I determine which control and data files belong to a
particular message id? I'm not sure how to do the mapping.

All I want to do is rid my system of this accumulated junk.

Thanks for any help.
Ricardo
