Deleting email from queue
I have a spamming problem, i have check my qmail stat and there are over 0.5 million emails in queue, further investigations show that the email being sent has the following header
--------------------------
Received: from punt-2.mail.demon.net by mailstore for x
id 1012803278:20:15964:20; Mon, 04 Feb 2002 06:14:38 GMT
Received: from [x13.2x9.x9.90] ([x13.2x9.x9.90]) by punt-2.mail.demon.net
id aa2111996; 4 Feb 2002 6:14 GMT
Received: (qmail 17956 invoked by uid 10046); 4 Feb 2002 02:47:07 -0000
Message-ID: <20020204024707.17955.qmail@localhost.xcom>
To: x <x>
From: nickmela47@yahoo.com <nickmela47@yahoo.com>
---------------------------------
( i have replaced some IP digits with x for security )
Now does the qmail 17956 invoked by uid 10046 mean that this email was sent via a form and if so, how can i use this uid to determine which users account the spammers are using,
I have tried deleting the emails from queue using the application qmail-remove but its taking for ever an i keep getting errors after its been running for a while.
So how can i manually purge the queue or to even delete ALL messages from the queue altogether.
I appreciate your help
