    Did you try to delete them from the web console for the smtp queue, also have you enabled the anti-spam features of the smtp proxy for incoming mail?

    Yes, i try to delete them from the web console,
    but I couldn't open the Queue.
    The antispam is disabled.

    Hi,

    You can check the SMTP queue via gui- it just takes long time because of the huge number of mail queued up.

    Check /var/chroot-smtp/spool. In there you'll find two directories, input and msglog. If you go into one of these directories and do an "ls", it might take awhile to display all files.

    What I did is "rm -fr input &" and "rm -fr msglog &", do this only if you don't care for any of the mails. When the directories were removed, I simply recreated them with the same permission, owner and group.

    You may also want to check /var/chroot-report/sarg.

    Now, you should be able to use the gui and display SMTP queue. You should have a minimal, if not empty, queue.

    I hope that helps.
