I think it would be more appropriate to use exiqgrep so it won't pick
up orphaned input files (I have a bunch of them).
exiqgrep -i -x -r <mailinglist@???> | xargs exim -M
-i = show only message ids
-x = don't select frozen messages (no sense in wasting time on known failures)
-r = select only emails with the sender as the address wrapped in <>
I agree with Tom though...let exim's internal queue functions handle
it since it's already doing whatever you'd be scripting and it works
in parallel.
