Hello,
        Last week one of our mail servers got slammed with 19,000 messages. The poor 
100 MHz 
machine ground to an apparent halt with 12k+ messages in the queue.  Much mucking 
about later, 
including freeing up space on the filled hard drive, I moved the queue folder 
elsewhere and 
restarted SIMS. Unfortunately now SIMS doesn't seem to delete incoming messages from 
the queue 
folder after they have been delivered to local accounts. When you click on a message 
in the 
queue web page the status is "delivered" but the message stays in the queue. It don't 
know if 
it is significant, but in the queue web page, the recipients are all in italics. Below 
is the 
of a test message to an account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) on that machine 
(mail.reasonabledoubt.com). Any ideas? 

Thanks,

Joe
