How to delete exim quarantine?

elektrip
I'd like to delete all queued emails that come from the ASG notification system.

The box is productive for some weeks now but I just recently found out why the notifications didn't send. So there are some thousands of notification mails hanging there with status "unaffected". (I know I can't delete them in the Quarantine Manager).

Now, I DON'T want those queued notification mails to be sent because 1) it chews all the cpu time and 2) may crash our small mailserver 3) makes no sense to see errors which are already solved.

If the solution involves to connect with SSH I'd be glad if you provide a step by step guide as I'm not familiar with the underlying linux system. Heck, I wasn't even able to login with SSH. Even with SSH access enabled and a password provided, ssh root@ip gives me "permission denied".

Thanks for help!

regards
Marco

    To answer your ssh question: You need to log in as "loginuser" first, then "su -" to root. You can not log in directly as root except from the console.

    As for your exim queue question, you forgot to mention what version of Astaro you are running...

    Him mentioning the status as "unaffected" sounds like V7.. unfortunately, I don't know how to delete the items he's speaking about.
