I had a drive failure and as a result all incoming mail ended up in the exim queue, about 7000 messages.

We brught up the accounts on a spare server and pointed the IPs to the new server, and mail is again coming in, but clients want their email.

First Question: How can I tell exim to keep the email in the queue and not send it back at expiry time?

Second question: How can I get exim on the broken server to send those emails to another server? The deliveries were set to local when the mails came iin but now I don't know how to get them out to the new machine.

Third question: can I just tar up entire queue and move it the new machine and dump the files into the queue's directories there? And if so, do I have to massage any files so exim will know about them?

Thanks.
