Queues

[mofusjtf]

I have a server that has a large amount of queues. This is due to a user trying to send an email with 16MB attachment to over 150 recipients. Anyway I tried to use the aqadmcli.exe tool to delete only the specific message based on a size I used the following syntax.

delmsg flags=SIZE,ms=16189685

It appears to have deleted all the messages in all the queues. Which is what I was trying to prevent. For future reference what would be the correct syntax to delete a message of a specific size using this tool?

Try deleting it by the sender next time.

setserver "Servername"
delmsg flags=sender,sender=sender@domain_name.com

Hope this helps!!

well, that user also had other messages of a smaller size that I did not want to delete. I thought about that. Would I be able to do both sender and size?

delmsg flags=sender,sender=sender@domain.com|size,ms=16189685


I think this can be a powerful tool to have at my disposal once I get familiar with the command switches.

i believe delmsg flags=sender,size,"sender=sender@domain_name.com","size=16189685" after the set server

Ah ha, are the quotes essential? And do I need to set the server if I'm running it on my exchange server? I didn't have to set the server when I ran the command I mentioned originally.

Thanks for the guidance.

quotes i believe are not required and I only specified that set server when running it from my machine.
