We migrated from one machine to another ca. a year ago; our
Maildirs still contain messages with the old hostname in the
filenames, and this hasn't posed any problems thus far;
I'd guess that the whole filename, up to the flags (S,R,...)
at the end is just made up of the timestamp, some number and
the hostname to ensure it's unique.

I'd flush the queue beforehand, i.e. block incoming port 25,
flush, cancelmsg any stuck messages, flush again to be sure.
