 CLUSTER VERBOSE outqueue.outrecipients;''
+===Alternative method (quicker)===
+An alternate way to delete **ALL** the outqueue messages, and related information (but not settings or messages in mailboxes) is to stop VPOP3 first, and then use:
+''DROP SCHEMA outqueue CASCADE;''
+This will delete all the relevant tables from the database, including their contents, so will be a lot quicker. When you restart VPOP3 it will recreate the deleted tables. You cannot selectively delete messages in this case. If you are using some sort of third party database replication, such as Bucardo, then that may need reinitialising.
