Hi Richard
don't know if this will help I use a perl script to scan the frozen messages and
unfreeze the valid ones if required. It is quite a manual process but it seems
to work ok for me.
If you want to have use it or have a look you can find it here

Subject: [Exim] Frozen Messages
Hello,
I have approx. 800 message in the queue on my exim 4.30 server. The majority
of these messages are Frozen, and I believe are being caused by the vast
amount of spam the we recieve. I think that latest MyDoom worm has probably
contributed too. I have tried running #/usr/sbin/exim4 -qff to clear the
queues but it doesn't appear to help.
How can I get my queue down to a reasonable level without the risk of
loosing valid mails?
Thanks
