Hello folks.

I have my spool with at least 2 million
mails. I would like to know if there is
an effective and efficient way to remove
emails from a particular user.

Believe me it is painfull to remove thousand/thousand
in millions of mails.

I have been dealing with this 4 months.

Is there any idea on this?

Note: I must not stop the box!

[:O] How the H... Do you get such an amount of outgoing email?
Looks like one of your users has a spam-account in your network.

I would strongly advise to disconnect your mailserver form the outherworld. After that clean your mailserver with at least 2 different virusscanners (Sophos as windows version and a DOS or Live-Linux version) if you us a windows machine. [;)]

And kill your whole mailqueue in the server. HTis will take a while, but better save than on a blacklist.

After you are sure the server is clean, check all your client stations to be save an sure.

I know it is a pain, but I had the same problems (before using astaro as firewall) and It took me a week to clean the server. Just by clicking on one wrong url and hell broke loose.
