hi

how can I completely purge queue of messages and fix the annoying bounce
message?

... unforunately half asleep I noticed a problems with a message and deleted
without stopping qmail

I deleted the message then the next delivery of the mail failed and I
thought darn I forgot to stop qmail, so I restarted it and then errors on
bounce messages  started appearing

the problems are that the hostname I set qmail up under was fbm.sdns.net and
sdns.net keeps dissappearing so I changed all the qmail control files to
fbm.yi.org but when I sent from elsewhere it still used the sdns.net address
also there has been problems with the mail servers at uea (norwich uni)

now there are more messages in my queue that are undeliverable, so I would
like to clear the queue safely, I presume they would expire after a while
but I would like to get rid of them so I can test that I have qmail working
without getting tonnes of old error messages from old emails
