Lack of inodes / Ghost files?

This shows you what directories you need to delete files from to clear your que.

Also, note that you should stop qmail before doing this. You can do this from NodeWorx or do a “service smtp stop” on command line.

After deleting you can start again using NodeWorx or service smtp start.

These are exactly the directories i’m deleting but i dodn’t stop qmail… it’s stopped now :smiley:
I’m still deleting these ones since a few hours:
mess
remote
info

And by the way i am at 67% free inodes (10gb deleted so far) :slight_smile:

INCREDIBLE
