I have 36 messages which appear to be permanently stuck in the queue,
I'm running qmail 1.03 with the holdremote patch on Mandrake Linux
6.1.

Normally everything runs quite smoothly but I sent a *lot* of mail
(by my standards!) last night, probably a few hundred messages in
ten minutes or so and these 36 messages have 'stuck'.  Most of the
messages were to the same destination so I can't see what's special
about these.

qmail-qstat reports:-
messages in queue: 36
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 0

qmail-qread reports:-

        remote  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[plus lots more similar]

I have tried 'kill -ALRM <qmail-send>' but that doesn't seem to
encourage anything to happen.  What do I have to do to get rid of these
messages?  It doesn't matter too much if there lost even.
