Possible to clear mails for a single mail-address?

Azurel

Silver Pleskian
One mail-account have above 50k error-mails (all the same). The download costs heavy time and the mail client is very busy, so I would like to clear/delete all mails for this one e-mail-address. Is it possible? I go to tab "mail" and select the address, but there is no queue/folder for a ~flush~(delete) command. Is this feature not included in plesk11.5.30? What can I do?

It is fine to delete "hard" mails in?:
/var/qmail/mailnames/address.com/info/Maildir/cur

Code:
find /var/qmail/mailnames/address.com/info/Maildir/cur/ -type f -delete

As far as I know there is no side effect to just deleting the mails.

If there are still some valid mails that the customer needs, and you only want to delete bad mails,
it would be better to use grep / xargs to delete just the bad mails.
