Did the spammer run a Rumpelstilksken on your system (for a in `cat
/usr/dict/words` ; do cat spam | mail $[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; done), or did the
spammer attempt to use you as a relay?  Or do you have so many users that
when someone sends mail to all of them at once, it kills your servers?

I am surprised that you can not put the mess directory back in at
/var/qmail/queue/mess, then restart qmail.  This should restore things
back to a chugging normal pace.

Ugh, if you have completely lost the envelope information, then you will
have to use '/var/qmail/bin/sendmail -t' on each and every one of the
messages, where the To/Cc is to an address in your rcpthosts.  Do this
wrong, and a lot of duplicate mail will go out to mailing lists and what
not.
