Exchange Server 2003 Mail Flush
SUMMARY
This article describes how to flush the
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail queue in Exchange
Server 2003.
The SMTP Service does not reject connection attempts
based on queue size. To flush the queue, you must pause
the SMTP virtual server. When you do so, the SMTP virtual
server processes and delivers existing (queued) items,
but it does not accept new connections.
To Flush the SMTP Mail Queue in Exchange Server 2003
1.) Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft
Exchange, and then click System Manager.
2.) Expand Servers, expand Server Name, and then expand
Protocols.
3.) Expand SMTP, right-click the SMTP virtual server (for
example Default SMTP Virtual Server), and then click Pause.
To resume the SMTP virtual server, right-click the SMTP
virtual server (for example Default SMTP Virtual Server),
and then click Pause to clear the check mark that appears
next to Pause.
