What an excellent resource. I wasn't aware of it before, now it's bookmarked.

I used exim -Mg `mailq | grep frozen | awk '{ print $3 }'`

(To remove frozen mail from the local spool with a delivery error message:)

I had the flush commands, but I wasn't sure that "flush" would deliver the
messages.

Thanks Florian, and everyone else who offered help.
