How to handle exim frozen messages?
Due to the problems that were seen in the last few days with unstable I have lots of messages in /var/spool/exim/input. I believe all those messages are seen in /var/log/exim/mainlog as frozen. My question is how to handle it? Is there a command line to instruct exim to try and send them again? Perhaps some cron job or maybe exim itself will try to handle it for me? Thank you.

RE: How to handle exim frozen messages?
Is there a command line to instruct exim to try and send them again? Perhaps some cron job or maybe exim itself will try to handle it for me? I generally try: exim -qff From the exim manpage: -qff This option operates like -qf and may appear with or without a following time. The difference is that any frozen messages are automatically thawed, and delivery is attempted for them. Hope that helps. Steve Barr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
