Introduction to Exchange 2003 Server - NDR (Non-Delivery Report)
Cleaning up NDR stuffed mail queues by Chris Lehr
I came upon this, and was shocked it was not publicized more. Microsoft released a small utility a while ago called aqadmcli.exe. It's a command line interface for SMTP queue management. When a domain gets
spammed a lot, many NDR's or non-delivery reports can occur, filling the queue with messages that may never get delivered. This utility allows you to set flags, and delete messages based on these flags. For
example, you can use it to delete all mail with the "FROM" being "postmaster@yourdomain.com" to remove (very very quickly compared to the GUI ESM tool) all emails sent from postmaster@yourdomain.com (which
are most likely all the NDR's that are clogging their SMTP queue. See more about Chris Lehr thoughts on Exchange

 Exchange Server 2007 is a complex topic, do you need practical hands on training? As an MCT trainer, I can thoroughly recommend
TrainSignal. In particular, I like the way
that TrainSignal cover all learning methods, instructor lead, video and of course text
material. You can either take one module, for example Exchange 2007 or go for a combination of modules.
