For some reason our queue has over 100,000 e-mail messages in at and they are
as old as 48 days!!!
I have these variables set:
deliver_queue_load_max = 10
auto_thaw = 1d
ignore_bounce_errors_after = 2d
timeout_frozen_after = 2d

There is also a bigger problem.. most of those e-mails are all SPAM being
sent from our server =(.. we are being badly abused!!!

I have it set to delete SPAM messages and not deliver them but its not even
deleting it.. I am using SpamAssasin by the way.. here is some headers
