Overview

Different scripts to search the exim queue.

Script

Find top sending addresses for current messages in queue

[bash,n] find /var/spool/exim/input -name '*-H' | xargs grep 'auth_id' | cut -d " " -f2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

Get message IDs for messages from a specific sender

[bash,n] find /var/spool/exim/input -name '*-H' | xargs grep 'auth_id' | grep <EMAIL ADDRESS> | cut -d: -f1 | cut -d/ -f7 | cut -d- -f1-3

Get list of IP addresses sending messages from specific address

[bash,n] for i in $(find /var/spool/exim/input -name '*-H' | xargs grep 'auth_id' | grep <EMAIL ADDRESS> | cut -d: -f1 | cut -d/ -f7 | cut -d- -f1-3);

do exim -Mvh $i | grep helo | cut -d "[" -f2 | cut -d "]" -f1| grep -v helo_name; done | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

Delete messages based on address

[bash,n] find /var/spool/exim/input -name '*-H' | xargs grep 'auth_id' | grep <EMAIL ADDRESS> | cut -d: -f1 | cut -d/ -f7 | cut -d- -f1-3 | xargs exim -Mrm

Advanced sender find

Makes it easier to identify spamming accounts with large exim queues [bash,n] for dir in $(ls -l /var/spool/exim/input/ | grep -v "\." | awk '{print $9}'); do echo "Cleaning up $dir"; echo "Getting emails in directory"; email=`find /var/spool/exim/input/$dir -name '*-H'`; ecount=`echo "$email" | wc -l`; echo "Found $ecount messages"; echo "$email" | xargs grep 'auth_id' | cut -d " " -f2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn done;


Advanced message delete based on address

Makes it easier to delete messages in large spam queues [bash,n] for dir in $(ls -l /var/spool/exim/input/ | grep -v "\." | awk '{print $9}'); do echo "Cleaning up $dir"; echo "Getting emails in directory"; email=`find /var/spool/exim/input/$dir -name '*-H'`; ecount=`echo "$email" | wc -l`; echo "Found $ecount messages"; spam=`echo "$email" | xargs grep 'auth_id' | grep boletin@jm11811.net | cut -d: -f1 | cut -d- -f1-3;` scount=`echo "$spam" | wc -l`; echo "Found $scount spam messages"; echo "Deleting"; echo "$spam" | xargs exim -Mrm; done;
