By mistake I sent a message (mutt, fetchmail, exim) that was missing a From: line in the header. As the result I'm deluged with frozen messages.
I understand that the command # exiqgrep -z -i | xargs exim -Mrm removed all frozen mail. It does so but the broken message continues to be received. I went to The "timeout_frozen_after" setting is in /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/02_exim4-config_options file and changed MAIN_TIMEOUT_FROZEN_AFTER = 7d to 1 hr. That had no effect. I purged exim4 and deleted the /etc/exi4 directory. I removed mutt and fetchmail but assume that was not necessary. I commended the existing mail queue and let exim build another. I rebooted and rebuilt my mail system from scratch to no avail. -- Haines Brown
