Sujet: [Exim] command line options, probably a stupid question
Hi,

This is probably a daft question, and I am missing something really
obvious, but how exactly do I use the command line?

I have a test network setup to get me up to speed on Linux in general,
before making a Linux server live (first step in replacing all the Windows
machines with Linux). Anyway, I have ended up with several messages stuck in
the spool file (sent while I had a problem with the DNS serve, now fixed)
and I can't get rid of them. What I would like to do is have them delivered.

I've been through the exim site and think I should be using '-Mt' to shift
them and get another delivery attempt. I've also been though the archives of
this list (I accept that the answer is quite probably there, I just didn't
use the right question).

Anyway, whatever I put doesn't work. So, what is the proper format I should
be using for a message in /var/spool/exim/input that looks like this:

16eLy0-0001Hm-00-D
16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H

I have tried:

exim -Mt 16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H
exim -Mt 16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H 16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H
exim -Mt <16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H> <16eLy0-0001Hm-00-H>

plus many other attempts along simialr lines.

many thanks for any help
