A year or so ago I had something in mailman lock. It showed as running but stop sending e-mails. I restarted mailman and it instantly started sending the posts that were not sent as of the issue. Not concerned about the lock since it only happened once in a year. But some of the posts are time sensitive and in the /var/spool/in directory I see some that are a week old and I do not want them to send if I restart mailman. If I just delete these and restart mailman can I be comfortably assured that and posts received after the issue will not be sent?
Another option may be to empty the membership and restart then re-pop the membership. I just don't want anything old to send.
Thanks, Dan
