Ever found yourself in the position where there are hundreds, or perhaps, thousands of emails sitting in your Exim queue? Fortunately, there's a quick and easy way to find where they're originating from! 

awk '$3 ~ /^cwd/{print $3}' /var/log/exim_mainlog | sort | uniq -c | sed "s|^ *||g" | sort -nr

The above command will provide an output such as the below:

240 cwd=/var/spool/exim
20 cwd=/home/user
7 cwd=/home/user2
