With newer Postfix snapshots, you can use postsuper to delete queue entries.
Here's a script from Craig Sanders on the postfix users list to feed an
email address and it will delete all queue entries that match--use at your
own risk:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$REGEXP = shift || die "no email-adress given (regexp-style, e.g. bl.*@yahoo.com)!";
@data = qx</usr/sbin/postqueue -p>;
for (@data) {
if (/^(\w+)\*?\s/) {
$queue_id = $1;
}
if($queue_id) {
if (/$REGEXP/i) {
$Q{$queue_id} = 1;
$queue_id = "";
}
}
}
#open(POSTSUPER,"|cat") || die "couldn't open postsuper" ;
open(POSTSUPER,"|postsuper -d -") || die "couldn't open postsuper" ;
foreach (keys %Q) {
print POSTSUPER "$_\n";
};
close(POSTSUPER);
