Depends on your mail server software.

Sendmail: /var/spool/mqueue (or /var/mail/mqueue)
Postfix: /var/spool/postfix/maildrop
Qmail: /var/qmail/queue

Subject: [GLLUG] Where is outgoing mail stored?


Hello,

I have a machine that was sending outgoing mail and filling up
mailboxes.  The current solution has been to unplug the ethernet.  I
would prefer to delete the outgoing mail and have the machine back on
the network though.  Does anyone know if this stored in an outbox
similar to the /var/spool/mail/ inboxes?  

Thanks!

Felicia
