Issue Qmail queue 20gb

[Filipe Silva]

Im using postfix, how come emails are being stored in the /var/qmail/queue/mess/*? I'm sorry, i'm not sure this is a plesk related question, it is using 20gb of disk storage.
Is it safe to use this guide: "How to clear qmail queue - General Linux - Admin-Ahead Community" ?
Thanks

GUI > Tools & Settings > Mail > Mail Server Settings > Tab "Mail Queue"
will give you details on the messages in the queue so that you can either delete them selectively or altogether.

That is the thing, the emails are not there. I usually use a postfix command to delete queues : "postqueue -p | grep "name@mail.pt" | awk '{print $1}' | postsuper -d -" .

qmail-qstat shows
"messages in queue: 374658
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 374728"

I would like to clean this and avoid it getting full again. I have a friend with the same issue for some reason.
