Bulk messages in smtp spool

hello,

I have noticed that all the email are coming delayed.I found out that I have about 600.000+ mails waiting in my SMTP Spool,Including valid emails.
With that i tried to delete all mails older than 3 days in global cleanup action and return me an error of "Request failed five times in a row" meaning failed.

Can it be solve via ssh and delete this files? Where is  this folder? i only want to delete 3 days older because some of the waiting email is not spam,can someone there show me the steps to accomplish these.

Please help !!!!

  • Is pharma.ca your domain?  If not, it looks like you have a mis-configuration in your UTM's SMTP Proxy.  Why are the original spams accepted for delivery to your server?

  • Ritesh, please insert a picture of the 'Routing' tab in 'Mail Security >> SMTP'.

    Cheers - Bob

    PS You're using a version that I don't think is still supported.  If the computer you're running on has 4GB of RAM, you should consider Up2Dating to 9.405.

  • Apparently, you don't have a mail server, so you can just disable the SMTP Proxy.

  • Pick out one of the emails and show us the related lines in the SMTP Proxy log file.
