im trying to delete emails sent to dbmaster@example.com. there are about 2000 emails like that in exim email queue
here's what i did:
SSH to my server
type: exiqgrep -ir dbmaster@example.com | xargs exim -Mrm
but it says: bash: exiqgrep: command not found
can i activate the deletion command for 10 or 30 mins and then stop it? i think by this way we cant delete some files from the dir and not all the files so i can edit my files
i want to do this because my server doesnt respond to any file system command because my hardisk is full! so i need to remove some files by any way
and its file.
i tried del c: emp*.*
but that didn't work and if i try rmdir c emp, it removed c: emp directory or maybe i'm not looking hard enough.
basically i want to copy a folder with many subdirectory under it, zip it up the folder and delete all the subfolder and the files in the subfolder but not the parent folder where it store all temp data.
i already got xcopy and zipping work but i can't seem to figure out how to remove all the folder inside the parent folder without deleting the parent folder.
i'm creating a batch file to run this task.
I have recently brought a VPS hosting package. At the moment I am going through the tutoritals on the net that I have researched before getting a VPS package to give me some understanding on what I need to do to securior the server and also how to install the software that I require.
For most of today, I have been trying to sort out a problem that I am currently having.
Of which is I am trying to sort out a part of the tutorial from a website that requires the use of apt commands.
But for every command I am getting the message back apt..... Command not found. I am currently using the ubuntu operating system. And through some research, I have got the feeling that I might have the bare installation done on my server to just make it work.
Would I be right, and with the bare installation apt commands wouldn't be installed?
If I am, how would I go about installing the Apt commands and anything else that I might require?

I should delete older than 5 days emails, how can I do it? (on cpanel and exim)
Although running
>>
/usr/local/psa/bin/dns --info dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com
>>
shows the 'ecz1' TXT record exists for "dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com" :
...
ecz1.dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com. TXT ecz1
[Code] ....
The issue can be caused by extra spaces in the TXT record:
Code:
[root@a10-52-143-28 ~]# /usr/local/psa/bin/dns --add dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com -txt 'ecz1 ' -domain ecz1
SUCCESS: Creation of DNS record in Domain 'dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com' complete.
[root@a10-52-143-28 ~]# /usr/local/psa/bin/dns --del dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com -txt 'ecz1' -domain ecz1
Unable to del record in DNS server: unable to find DNS record
In the following example I have 3 such TXT records with 3, 5, 7 extra spaces and remove record with 3 spaces:
Code:
[root@a10-52-143-28 ~]# mysql -u admin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` psa -e "select host, val, (length(val) - length(rtrim(val))) as extraspaces from dns_recs where host='ecz1.dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com.' and val like 'ecz1%'"
+---------------------------------------+-------------+-------------+
| host | val | extraspaces |
+---------------------------------------+-------------+-------------+
| ecz1.dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com. | ecz1 | 5 |
| ecz1.dev.sname.c002.aname.domain.com. | ecz1 | 3 |

How does one dump the contents of a Qmail?
That is emails that are waiting to be sent which are not going to be sent since they are bad emails so they are just stuck in the queue and are killing cpu resources, how does one tell Qmail to dump all unsent emails waiting in the queue?

am running CentOS 4.4 i686 and WHM 10.8.0 and we are having trouble receiving email from certain domains.
Undere whm tweak settings we do not have the "SpamAssassin Spam Filter" enabled.
Mails sent from two domains (that we know of) do not reach us at all and no error message is deliver to the sending address.
Emails sent from us to them DO reach they destination so we are thinking some spam filfer or configuration in exim must be the culprit.
I've looked through my exim logs a number of times and I see emails being sent out with "from:" fields with email addresses of other domains. Usually they are spam related and fraudulent.
How can exim be setup to only send out emails that have localdomains in their from fields?
E.g. if I have account bob.com on my server then the owner of bob.com can only send out emails "xxxx@bob.com" no matter what else he tries to do that's all exim will send out.
How can you get exim to do this? I have been using filtering to block commonly spammed domains like aol.com hotmail.com etc - any emails sent out with these in their from fields are filtered and blocked - but rather building up a larger and larger filter of commonly abused domains - why not just block everything except domains on your server.

I have a problem with spoofing spammers.. my queue is plenty of non-delivered emails from externals SMTP, sended to NON-existents address on my server...
The question is the destination domain (mydomain.com b.example) has already its ":fail: No Such User Here" alias.
SMF records applied, but not the most external SMTP servers checks them nowadays...
Using :fail: the email is never accepted into the server. During the initial SMTP negotiation when the senders SMTP server connects to your SMTP server, the sending SMTP server issues a RCPT command notifying your server which email address the email to follow is intended for. Your server then checks whether the recipient email actually exists on your server (a POP3 account, an alias or a catchall alias) and if it does not, it issues an SMTP DENY which terminates the attempt to deliver the email.
Well, in my case it justs receives message and then frozen it!

1) What would you guys say is average in terms of the # of emails in the Mail Queue?
2) What steps can be taken to tighten it up? If I start with a clean slate, it only takes about a week or less for my mail queue to reach 1000 or more. Most of it seems like junk mail.
I have noticed on my two dedicated servers logs that some emails just dissapear after being frozen for days in queue and there is no notice or warning sent to the sender.
Please check your logs and tell me if I am wrong, just check for non-zero on your exim_mainlog
grep non-zero /var/log/exim_mainlog
and then grep your messageId
grep 1K17WW-0002so-Sn /var/log/exim_mainlog
