I would copy the /spool directory to the send directory of any mailerdeamon
you have running at the inside of your network and have that deamon resend those
mails.
Another possibility (that worked for me) to go around the CP bug of the
multiple MX record entries would be to specifiy your providers' relay server as
the Mail Server in your SMTP resource, thus dequing everything to your
providers' relay server (who will successfully resend your mails). This is
not really a solution for the mails who are already in your /spool directory I'm
afraid. For those I'd go with my first suggestion.

Hi there,
we're running a FW-1 with Trend Micro CVP
server both on Win NT machines,
which we are using to scan outbound SMTP
mail. Like many we've run into
the problem that FW-1 will never query
the destination domain for a
secondary MX host. Thus, a lot of our
mails are ending up in the mail
spool queue.
We've agreed to disable
outbound SMTP mail scanning, but we'd like to flush
the remaining mails out
of our spool queue. The problem is that the mails
we're trying to flush
are still getting rejected by a CVP rule in FW-1.
We've deleted the rule out
of our rulebase, but the logs keep saying that
this rule is rejecting the
mails. We found out that indeed this rule
number is included in each
mail file in the spool queue. How can we
dequeue these mails as fast as
possible?
We tried using fw mdq, with no result whatsoever.
Any help
would be very much appreciated, please reply to the mailinglist or
to me
directly?
Thanks,
Tom
