We just had devmon stop working while we was out at lunch and had over 1600 e-mail messages come in. So I logged into the server and stopped sendmail, so that the e-mails would stop going out. I have everything up and working but need to know how I can clear out any left over messages so that when I start sendmail back up I won't get another 1600 messages saying recovered.
After I get that resolved what is the best way to have hobbit only page out purple for the devmon process itself and not for any device devmon is monitoring?
Thanks,

I had looked in there but there really was anything there pertaining to the messages going out. I finally found something at clientmqueue and there was around 3000 messages in there. How can I configure it so that the purple doesn't go out like that. I mean I have alerts setup in the hobbit-alerts.cfg but none of them are for purple only yellow and red. The only spot I see purple is hobbitserver.cfg, which I would think once I configure custom alerts for all my devices and don't include purple that it wouldn't go out at all.
