    Default Purge exim queue of all mails to one addr

    After a goofy hack attempt, I've got about 39,000 emails queued up to a specific, non-existant account.

    What is the easiest way to purge just these emais? Also, is there a command to view the current queue count?

    The script ciphervendor posted in this thread will do the trick:

    You'll need to use the script. The single command in an earlier post will fail with that many emails.

    Hey thanks for that script, I had 2 questions:

    1. I'm a very newbie to SSH, how does one "create" and execute a "script"? (do I need to create a file, upload it somewhere and execute it? pleae give me details on a step by step how to get that script running)

    2. is there any way I can put a filter in antivirus.exim that will purge all double or more emails (with same exact size) -which are 99% spam-?
