Subject: Re: [exim] Gateway uses 2 instances of Exim - How do I direct commands to one or the other
Fantastic thanks much but that gives me another problem..

exim -C /etc/exim/exim_send.conf -bpr | grep frozen | wc -l

worked perfectly and gave a result of 23 but the statement below
which I'm told should delete the frozen messages did not.

exim -C /etc/exim/exim_send.conf -bpr | grep frozen | awk {'print $3'}
| xargs exim -Mrm


It gave the following 23 times:

Spool read error for 1LrpM1-0001yE-2u-H: No such file or directory
Continuing to ensure all files removed
Message 1LrpM1-0001yE-2u has been removed or did not exist

and if I rerun the 1st command it says there's still 23 messages.

Is there something wrong with the syntax or another way to kill the
frozen messages?

Rick
