Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

Sometimes older messages remain in the queue because they could not be delivered. You may want to 
remove and archive these messages. To do this, use the  

showmessage 

CLI command to to display the 

message for the given message ID. Use the  

oldmessage

 CLI command to display the oldest 

non-quarantine message on the system. You can then  optionally use the  

removemessage 

to safely 

remove the message for the given message ID. This command can only remove messages that are in the 
work queue, retry queue, or a destination queue. If the message is in none of these queues, it cannot be 
removed. 

 You can also use the   

archivemessage[mid]

 CLI command to archive the message for a given message 

ID into an mbox file in the configuration directory. 

You cannot use the 

oldmessage

 command to get the message ID for a message in a quarantine. However, 

if you know the message ID, you can show or archive the specified message. Since the message is not in 
the work queue, retry queue, or a destination queue, you cannot remove the message with the

 

removemessage

 command.

You cannot perform any of these queue management commands on a message in the Cisco Spam 
Quarantine.
