Removing old mail from the queues
Use the
cleanque(ADM)
program to remove outdated files from the mail queues.
Use
crontab(C)
as mmdf to run cleanque daily.
You might want to run cleanque more often,
depending on your mail volume.
You can also run cleanque using
cron(C).
To do this, create a crontabs file for
mmdf in the /usr/spool/cron/crontabs
directory that includes this line:
0 0 * * 0-6 /usr/mmdf/bin/cleanque
You can also run cleanque by hand whenever
you suspect a problem with mail delivery.
The cleanque manual page
provides a complete description of this program.
