Managing the Email Queue
Note To perform the bouncerecipients function, it is recommended that you place the Cisco IronPort
appliance in an offline state or suspended delivery (see Placing the Cisco IronPort Appliance into a
Maintenance State, page 8-2).
Note Although the function is supported in all states, certain messages may be delivered while the function is
taking place.
Matches to recipient hosts and senders must be identical string matches. Wild cards are not accepted.
The bouncerecipients command returns the total number of messages bounced.
Note The bouncerecipients function is resource-intensive and may take several minutes to complete. If in
offline or suspended delivery state, the actual sending of bounce messages (if hard bounce generation is
on) will begin only after Cisco IronPort AsyncOS is placed back into the online state by using the resume
command.

Please select how you would like to bounce messages:
1. By recipient host.
2. By Envelope From address.
3. All.

Recipients to be bounced are identified by either the destination recipient host or the message sender
identified by the specific address given in the Envelope From line of the message envelope. Alternately,
all messages in the delivery queue can be bounced at once.
