Whoops! That's what I get for skimming the original message. Sorry

In that case, he could try:
$ cd <path to pending dir>
# list Subjects to make sure you're only deleting the messages you want
$ egrep -l "^Subject: <regex>" *.msg | xargs -i sh -c "formail -cXSubject<{}"
# call tmda-pending in batch-delete mode to remove messages
$ egrep -l "^Subject: <regex>" *.msg | xargs tmda-pending -bd
