Yes. There is a way. But mine is brute force. Remove all of them. (Someone
obviously might have a better one).
Don't panic. Just shut down the sendmail daemon first so that other mails
don't enter the queue. And the incoming mails will stay at the "previous
step". Then coolly look into the problem (hw/sw etc).

Shutting down sendmail first will avoid this problem.
