I had a specific problem to deal with yesterday with an internal spammer sending out over 100,000 messages and I was trying to move his spooled messages from my sendmail(not my idea) box queue to a different dir after shutting down the processes. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to do this. Windows is so much easier for stuff like search for contents of files and then cut and paste.
