How  to look at mail queue

I have installed Collaboration Suite 9.0.3, and am curious to know how to look at the mail queue on the OCS server, and more specifically, how do I delete emails in the queue? Somebody apparently found us during the installation of this server before I could lock it down with spam rules, and I have a ton of junk emails stuck in the queue that won't go anywhere. How do I get rid of those messages? They are literally using up the server resources after about 5 hours of the server trying to send them.
Thanks,
Michael

Well, I guess that's part of the problem too. I'm not sure I have emails in the queue. I have the OCS server set up with the relay host set to another server on the network running sendmail. If I stop the smtp_out service on the OCS server, and then start it again, I see a bunch of messages being sent to the relay server to be delivered, most of them spam as far as I can tell. The sendmail server is set to reject those messages, so it does not try to deliver them and therefore does not put them in the queue on that server. However, regardless of restarting smtp_out, restarting Unified Messaging, restarting OCS, or restarting the entire server, those messages continue to remain in what I'm assuming is the queue on the OCS server. Does that make any sense? From what I can get from the documentation, they must be sitting in the mailstore database somewhere, and I'm wondering if there is a query I can run to at least look and see what is there, and preferable delete them. Otherwise, I guess I have to wait 5 days for the server to finally give up.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Michael

  • How To reduce Mail Queue Database File?

    Hello Team,
    I setup exchange server 2013,i check daily mail queue database file increase .
    So how to decrease database file?i
    Thanks,

    Hi Jim,
    While moving old queue, we will loose some mail during this operation.
    Can we do this activity without any downtime or without loosing any mail.
    Please confirm we only need to move mail.que and rest of other file (log and temp) will remain the same.
    What I am thinking how new queue will sync with old logs and other files.
    Thanks
    Hi
    If the new queue work without any problem, we could refer to the following steps:
    Use “Net stop MSExchangeTransport” to stop Exchange transport service.
    Overwrite all the existing empty queue database files and transaction log files on the target Exchange transport server by using all the files from "C:\QueueRecovery". By default, the queue database and transaction logs exist in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange
    Server\TransportRoles\data\Queue.
    A new queue database is created when the Microsoft Exchange Transport service is restarted. This can occur at any time after we have finished copying the queue database files to the target transport server.
    Use “ Net pause MXExchangeTransport ” to pause message flow through Hub Server
    Use the Queue Viewer or the Get-Queue cmdlet in the Exchange Management Shell to monitor the delivery queues on the target Exchange transport server. Wait until no messages remain in any of delivery queues on the server as indicated by a message count of
    0.
    Then we use “Net stop MSExchangeTransport” to stop Exchange transport service.
    Overwrite all the existing empty queue database files and transaction log files on the target Exchange transport server by using all the files from "C:\QueueRecovery". By default, the queue database and transaction logs exist in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange
    Server\TransportRoles\data\Queue.
    Use “Net start MSExchangeTransport” to enable Exchange transport service.
    We could refer to the following link to learn more details:

    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

  • Mail queue filling with errors, is something broken?

    Back in SL, I was able to just look at the queue in server app and if it ever had anything in it, I knew it was a problem and I usually could deal with it.
    But in ML, you have to issue "mailq" in terminal to see it. So I did that a lot when first set up, and everything seemed fine.
    I just checked it recently and found hundreds of messages like this:

  • Mail stuck in the Mail Queue

    For reasons I have not yet understood, my 10.5.2 mailserver stopped delivering mail. After a few restarts it is now running again but;
    All the mail that arrived while it was stopped is now stuck in the Mail Queue. How can I get it to deliver thisstuck mail?

    If they can't get to the content filter on the first try, maybe it's overloaded? How busy is your machine?
    It's a new installation of Leopard Server on an internal drive, the CPU navigate from 0 to 20% so it's not here. I used spamtrainer to import the database from the old drive (Tiger Server) and the mail store is on a RAID disk so I just had to change the default mail location in the right pane. I just restarted the server on the Tiger Server disk and everything is fine there.
    Requeuing does not start the content filter, so if it were off, it'd still be off. So since it is running, it look like it can't keep up.
    Sorry, I do my best to be understandable :->
    I just made tries to see if mails would be delivered once the spam and virus filter is off and saw that mails were not delivered at all.
    Is this the normal behavior ?
    This problem of the content filter is probably linked to what I said in another thread.
    I cannot uncheck "Attach subject tag" in Server Admin. If I uncheck the spam filter and virus filter then mails are not delivered too.
    I doubt it is linked (unless you "play" with Server Admin while troubleshooting the queue). As I mentioned above, amavisd, doesn't run just "a bit".
    You can always change the amavisd and postfix settings yourself.
    If I knew what to change and where I probably would do it :->
    I'm just scared about how many things don't work as expected once Leopard Server is installed.
    Lot of problems with SMB too and as we have only one machine here I must reboot the server on Tiger if I don't want everybody here to kill me :->>
    Maybe some files cannot be read/write...
    If it was a permission issue, requeued mail would still hit the same issues.
    Yes... I thought about that.
    Do you think that it could help to download the 10.5.2 combo update and to reinstall it ?
    Doubt it, but it probably won't hurt.
    Will try it as soon as I can reboot the server on Leopard. I seems that someone will not leave the office like others will do today
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I clean up queue one-time on Sun Java system messaging 6.3

    Hi,
    <address>Our Email server have a problem, When I run _./imsimta qm directory tcp_local_, There are about 5 Millions of messages in the queue.</address>
    Now our Email server send messages very slowly, how can I clean up queue one-time?
    the command _./imsimta qclean_ is very slowly.
    What can I do to prevent this problem?
    our Email server version is :
    Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-6.03 (built Mar 14 2008; 32bit)

    Thank you !

    If you have more than 100,000 messages in the queue, then look at the MAX_MESSAGES parameter in [the job_controller.cnf file|http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite/Job+Controller+Configuration+File]. If the parameter is not specified, it defaults to 100000. If you have more than that number of messages in the channel queues, it will take a long time for new/legitimate messages to be sent because job_controller is only considering the first 100,000 messages in the queue.
    If you get into the "imsimta qm" command do do "sum -database", it will show a summary of what job_controller has in its internal cache and therefore what job_controller is working on. If you compare that to "sum -directory" you will probably see a difference.
    If these are all legitimate messages, you need to increase MAX_MESSAGES, cnbuild, and restart job_controller.
    If they are not, then preventing this in the future will require determining how they got into your queue and correcting that.
    As for removing them, the "imsimta qm" commands allow you to select messages by various criteria and then you can "return" or "delete" them. But yes, that will take a long time if there are many messages because it is a single threaded process and it needs to open and examine each message. You may be able to accomplish the task more quickly with a shell script that works on individual channel queue subdirectories and then run multiple copies of that script in parallel. After you have cleaned out the queue, restart job_controller.
    Also, you might want to consider [the subdirs channel keyword|http://msg.wikidoc.info/index.php/Subdirs_and_nosubdirs_Channel_Options].

  • How can I "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight (and preferably visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App)?

    How can I "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight (and preferably visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App)?
    Background:
    I am using Mountain Lion and Mail App and running out of space on my small primary SSD drive (where I keep OS, apps, key user preferences/data and mail for speed). The mail data is the big variable (many GBs) and I want to "archive"/move some of the old mail to my 2nd drive inside the Mac. But I still want it searchable inside spotlight and preferably even inside Mail too. And I'd like to be able to still drag and drop old mails into this archive folder.
    What I've tried that seems to work:
    This seemed to work:
    1. Move the archive folder/mailbox to the 2nd drive/partition/folder (don't delete anything inside Mail App)
    2. Create a symbolic link from its new location to the original/old location
    This seems to work, it looks as "normal" and as if nothing happened inside Mail App but the folder now resides elsewhere and seems searchable etc. But I'm not sure that once caches refresh or over time with updates etc if stuff will break horribly or corrupt.
    Is that the right way to "archive" mails in Mail App to another internal drive/partition to save space but still have it searchable in spotlight and visible, searchable, draggable in Mail App?
    Thanks in advance!
    Cheers,
    Daniel

    I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
    I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
    I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

  • How can I read mail that is on my hard drive?

    Whew, this is so tough that I can't even really describe what is happening.
    Yet my hunch is that the solution is very easy if you know how to use a computer. (I've been using Macs/PCs for decades but am apparently clueless about certain aspects.)
    I use Mac Mail in OS 10.4.
    I notice that in my Admin/Library/Mail that all my mail is in various folders.
    (There is no Mail folder in my name account, only in Admin. My impression is that I am the Admin and that I don't often use my name account, but I don't really know how that all works.)
    I back up those folders to a remote drive.
    I would look to look at some of that email again.
    The email I would like to look at is in the Sent Messages.mbox folder within the POP-[my email address] folder within the Mail folder.
    If I backup then delete the current "Sent Messages.mbox" folder and replace it with the folder of the same name that has old email in it that I want to look at, I have no luck.
    The program keeps pointing to the current Sent mail even though it's trashed.
    So that part of the program must be looking at mail that is not on my hard drive but which is on a remote email server.
    How can I make Mac Mail look at a folder on the hard drive instead of on the server?
    I have a vague understanding of the mail "On My Mac" vs. mail on the server, but I don't know how to control what the program is looking at. I wish I could just have it "Open" a folder that I pointed to.
    I've been searching and googling about the subject for hours with no luck. I'll will keep trying.
    (I previously had a question here on a related subject. I backed up the old mail and deleted unwanted mail and it still seemed to be in the Mac program. Some folks tried to help me but they suggested that I do things which were very difficult to me, just as download and compare files using a 3rd party program that is something like Spotlight to look at hidden files, I guess, but which doesn't work with 10.4. I forget the name of it. I think I must be missing something really obvious about mail stored on a hard drive versus mail stored on a server, but which is also opaquely handled on the Mac -- that is, a nonexpert might easily mishandle it. But I recently tried taking some of their advice and got nowhere and I see that the question is archived now.)
    Help?
    Thanks. -- JP

    No, I don't think so. I think I gave all the specifics that I can imagine in my first post. I had email that I received and replied to in my SENT folder. I believe it came in from my POP server and went out that way, too. I backed it up on a remote drive. So there was a SENT folder on that remote drive. Now I'm trying to look at it again. Via the Mail program. I've copied that old SENT folder into my Library>Mail>POP folder where it came from. But I am only able to look at recent/new SENT mail. I want the Mail program to point to that old folder of SENT mail. I'm the only person who uses this computer. All my mail seems to end up in my Admin folder. I do have a Username folder but no mail goes there. It doesn't seem to be the folder/acc't that I use, but who knows. I just type on the computer and use it. I didn't set it up. A friend gave it to me years ago.

  • How can I make mail retry sending messages in the Outbox?

    Howdy all,
    As the title says how can a force Mail to try to resend the messages in the outbox? I use my MacBook Pro in a number of different environments and when I am on one flakey access point in particular or when I have forgotten to open Safari to reauthorize recently on another network Mail will fail to contact the SMTP server. When this happens my message gets stuck in the outbox to be sent later. My problem is that I do not know how to get it out of there effectively.
    Once I have fixed the transitive error in the network (or or the problem fixes itself) how do I get the messages out of the inbox? At this point I can send more messages with no problem and they will happily go out but those in the queue just sit there.
    Now, I have tried a number of things like quitting and restarting Mail, bringing the various network interfaces back up and down, and other things to try to trick Mail into sending the queued messages but that has been haphazard at best. I can't help thinking that there is something obvious I am missing.
    Thanks for any help!

    Highlight the message in the inbox, double-click on it, and click on the "send" icon
    You may even consider BCCing yourself to see whether the message actually goes or not, and you just have an artifact copy stuck in your outbox that you could then just delete.
    Otherwise, copy&paste the stuck message body into a new message, and delete the stuck one out of the outbox before attempting to send the new one

  • Trying to implement a mail queue

    I'm trying to implement a very basic mail queue using ExecutorService and a Callable split into a producer which builds the email and an email queue and a consumer to send the queued message out but I keep getting:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:97)
         at org.bedework.mail.sendMail.call(sendMail.java:45)
         at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(Unknown Source)
         at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source)
         at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
    I'm not sure how to get the transport variable passed across and read by the consumer thread.
    The consumer code is:
    public class sendMail implements Callable<Object> {
         private ArrayBlockingQueue<Object>  queuedMail;
         private Transport trans;
         private MimeMessage msg;
         private Logger log = Logger.getLogger(sendMail.class);
         public sendMail (ArrayBlockingQueue<Object> queuedMail, Transport trans) {
              this.trans = trans;
              this.queuedMail = queuedMail;
         public Object call() throws Exception {
              try {
                   queuedMail.poll();
                   synchronized (queuedMail) {
                      if (queuedMail.isEmpty()) {
                         queuedMail.wait(1000);
                   try {
                        trans.send(msg);
                        Thread.sleep(1000);
                   } catch (Exception e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
              return null;
    }The code that calls it is:
    tr = sess.getTransport(config.getProtocol());
            pool.submit(new buildMail(sess, cal, originator, to, subject));
            pool.submit(new sendMail (mailqueue, tr));I'd be grateful for any pointers in getting this sorted out.

    First, read this FAQ item:
    [http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#send|http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/FAQ.html#send]
    Then explain to me how "msg" is ever set in your sendMail class.

    Hi Nicolas!
    Have you tried to set "Output Format" for "RAW Text" to HTM in SCOT.
    If HTM is missing in your dropdown-list, you could check out table SXCONVERT2. Copy the line with category T/format TXT, and change the format from TXT to HTM. The existing function
    SX_OBJECT_CONVERT__T.TXT does not need to be changed. Now you should be able to choose HTM in SCOT. You will probably need som HTML-tags in your text to make it look good.
    Hope this helps!

  • Mail queue filling up, delivery real slow

    mail server is: 10.4.2 running on a dual 2 GHz Xserve 1 gig RAM
    2 hard drives. 1 boot, 1 mail store
    my mail queue is filling up with messages that can't be delivered. bad address usually. not sure why they make into the queue in the first place.
    The queue reaches as high a 7000+ messages.
    This is really killing my server. Can anyone shed some light??

    I do have a few Windows clients. They have up to date virus protection but they could very well be infected with some malware. I haven't had the chance to run SpyBot on them.
    Sorry for the long postconf output.
    I did requeue all the messages with postsuper -r. I also put them all on hold (postsuper -h) which allowed for new messages to be delivered as usual. Deleting the queue was not an option. I am pretty sure now that it was a spam dictionary attack. But I am still concerned that this would effectively bring the server down.
    I looked into recipient restrictions but don't see any easy way to maintain an accurate list of my users. Is there a way to pull them from the LDAP directory? I guess I could do that with a perl script, shouldn't be too hard. Is there an easier way? Something built in?
    Anyway the server is fine now. As I said I put all the messages on hold then slowly released them back into the active queue. Once the server was able to get over its hang up it chewed through the remaining messages ok. This still brought my server down pretty much the entire day. Not acceptable in most countries.
    Any other ideas are welcome!
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • How can I get Mail to capitalise the first letter of a sentence?

    Hello all,
    this is my first time using apple Support Community.  i am a new apple user and have just got my first MacBookPro (its wonderful).  however, i am having some difficulties. 
    How can i get Mail to capitalize the first letter of a sentence and also capitalize 'i' as 'I' automatically?
    Also, how can i get apps like Pages to do the same? and for that matter typing into internet sites like this one? look at the lack of automatic punctuation!!
    Thank you all for any advice and tips you may have. 
    Paul.

    I don't think whether it's easier or not is really an issue.  The problem is that all of these wonderful technologies are taking away our understanding of how to communicate in writing.  It's not a matter of being lazy and not "wanting" to do it, but rather getting to a point where many people "can't" do it.
    I certainly wasn't pointing any fingers.  I use a calculator (or computer if I happen to be on one at the time) to do the most basic math calculations.  I can be out to lunch with co-workers and we have to pull out a calculator to split a bill 4 ways.  I went through school at a time when calculators were not permitted.  So, at one time, I could have easily done all of that stuff in my head.  So far as math goes, my mind has turned to mush a long time ago.  I doubt I could work my way through a long division problem at this point... even if I sat there and really tried.
    Computers were not generally consumer items when I was growing up.  So I didn't grow up in a world with spell checking.  I have certainly grown to use it though and I'm sure my ability to spell properly has diminished somewhat because of it.  I tend to be less careful when typing something out.  If I'm not sure of the spelling on something, I just let my computer either fix it or give me a suggestion for the corrected spelling.  Fortunately, I grew up having to rely on my own ability to spell, so with that foundation, I tend to do fairly well when it comes to spelling.
    We're at a point now where systems can correct grammar and sentence structure.  I think all of these are great tools to help us out, but they shouldn't be used to take the place of actually knowing how to do things.  Having said that, I'm fairly sure that is exactly what will happen.  Just as today, I rely almost entirely on some form of electronics for everyday math, I'm sure people growing up today with expert systems able to correct everything will rely on those equally.
