Hi,<br />
<br />
one account on the server was hacked, so this client spammed all the time. After changing the password of this Mailaccount, no new spams were detected.<br />
But the Mailqueue were extremly large (some hundred thousends of mails). <br />
So i stopped qmail and extracted all mails with qmail-remover. After starting qmail i got an empty queue. So far so good.<br />
<br />
The files of the &quot;old&quot; queue were stored in another folder. there i killed all the spams. Now i have a few good mails in it.<br />
<br />
How do i get those mails back in the queue, that qmail is delivering them ? Those mails named xxxxxx.info and xxxxx.mess ???<br />
<br />
Thanks for helping me

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
