 |
|
I have a hopefully simple question; how do I clear Mailman's notification queue? I have synced the Mailman list using sync-members and I didn't add the option to not notify the administrators of the list.
So now I have well over 6 thousand notifications pending. I stopped the notifications from flowing by simply stopping the mailman service but how do I clear the queue so that the notifications do not go out?
Thank you fore your time. |

This question was answered via Mailman's forums:

Most if not all will be in Mailman's out/ queue some may be in the
virgin/ queue. You can probably identify them by time stamp and if in
doubt, Mailman's bin/show_qfiles will show you their contents.
Unwanted ones can simply be removed.
In a default Mailman installation these queue directories are in
/usr/local/mailman/qfiles or wherever you configured var_prefix to be.
Various packages put them in other places such as /var/spool/mailman/.
