These are old messages frozen in your mail queue. You can see their metadata with the 'mailq' command. Then you can use exim to either throw them away or try to re-deliver them, (but first you'll have to fix the problem that prevented their delivery in the first place or change their destination addresses to something that will work). > 2003-02-25 13:38:08 End queue run: pid=8055 > 2003-02-25 13:39:05 18ncUL-0002aA-00 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] > H=localhost [127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=5354 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-02-25 13:39:10 > 18ncUL-0002aA-00 ** |/usr/bin/procmail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> D=userforward > T=address_pipe: return message generated exim doesn't like to see anything come back from the output of a pipe delivery.

You should deal with those frozen messages. Start with mailq, then read the exim manpage to see how to use -M , -Mrm , -Mar , -Mg , -Mmd , etc. to process those frozen messages. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "If we do not believe in freedom of speech for those we despise we do not believe in it at all." --Noam Chomsky
