systemd stop exim rm -f /var/spool/exim/db/retry systemd start exim The worst that can happen is, that you try to send out a bunch of emails to servers, which do not take emails atm. If that happens very often, there is really something wrong and you should consider updating exim and all berkleytools with it. If your hardrive is defectiv, you can check that first with smarttools and/or with badblockchecktools. But, depending on how old your systemsoftware is, consider upgrading it.
