Thousands of messages in Mailbox!!!

[MrClinker]

Dear experts:

I have Groupwise 5.5, with GWIA, wireless external internet link, one post office, one domain, over Netware 4.11.

Everything working fine, until I went on vacation last week and I left an automatic Rule to reply with text while I was on vacation (yes, Network Administrators have the rigth to go on vacation from time to time...)

Now I find thousands of messages in my mailbox (4196 messages, GroupWise limit to show), all from Mailer-Daemon@domain, saying that my messages could not reach some addresses (but it does not say which addresses).

In the folder grpwise\domain\wpgate\gwia\gwprobs I found aprox. 118000 'problem' messages, which I deleted. I also run an Expire-Reduce maintenance option in my user, but it did not help, I still have thousands of messages in my Mailbox.

¿Any idea about how can I regain control of my mailbox (I dont care if I lose all messages)? ¿Any idea why this happened?

Thank you very much,

If you don't care about loosing all messages, just delete your GroupWise account and recreate it.
