Please use the search function as this topic has been covered many times and has some top tips from a main developer.  Thanks.

You should be cautious using qmhandle and understand fully what you are doing whether deleting queued messages and so on.

Why do you want to delete the message ? is the message to big ?

Thanks.

Your best course of action is to let the qmail take its own action as using qmHandle does need caution when used. Just wait and let qmail do its job and then give the users an ear bashing :)

Give it time and it qmail should resolve all emails.

Of course if you still wish to use qmHandle then please search as its a topic thats been covered many times.
