You can run exim -qff on the CLI without modifying the init script so
please revert the changes!

What is a "post queue"??
About frozen messages, you need to find out why they are frozen and address
that. Once Exim freezes a message,
only a manual intervention (exim -Mt) will get it delivered, but you
shouldn't just do -Mt blindly. Figure out why it got
frozen.
