I have quite a bit of email in my queue that is bouncing...how can I clear it?

You may have email in your outbound queue for a bogus domain and you may want to delete them. There are a few ways to do this. Your choice may depend on your circumstances or technical ability:


Set up the domain as a local virtualdomain, with a .qmail-default that discards all mail sent to it. Add it to rcpthosts, then route mail back to your own server with smtproutes: bogusdomain.com:127.0.0.1
Set up a dummy qmail-smtpd that just discards all mail coming to it, and put into smtproutes: bogusdomain.com:dummy.dom.ain:port
You may be able to simply put a nonexistent domain name in smtproutes instead of setting up a dummy server; I haven't tried it.
Set it up as a virtualdomain (virtualdomains and rcpthosts) and "echo '#' > .qmail-default" for the appropriate .qmail-default file
