• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Clear Mail Queue using SSH

bradz

Regular Pleskian
With Plesk 10.4, can one clear the Mail Queue using SSH without installing software?
The control panel is responding very slowly.
Thanks for any help!
Sincerely,
Brad
 
Look at available options for /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailqueuemng utility.
 
And how do I look at the options of the command? Typing the command puts out the queue, -h, --help, -help or something similar doesn’t work…
 
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailqueuemng --help | grep 'delete all messages in the queue'
-D : delete all messages in the queue (local and remote)
 
~# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailqueuemng --help

/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailqueuemng: unrecognized option `--help'
 
confirming: -h and --help do not work.
Also, would be great to be able to delete by sender or recipient not only by subject.
 
If you have Postfix as MTA, you can use following command:

postsuper -d ALL
