I am receiving a barrage of bounce messages to my mail account. I realise this could just be a spammer using my return address but I suspect my mail server has been compromised and used for spam.

It's Yosemite running on a Mac Mini with the Server application. Mail server is Postfix (I believe) with a very limited GUI.

I have changed the passwords on the server and my mail account.

How do I clear out all the spooled spam so it stops?
[doublepost=1473429693][/doublepost]I've deleted a bunch of folders named 0 through F in the following paths:

/Library/Server/mail/defer/
/Library/Server/mail/deferred/
/Library/Server/mail/active/
/Library/Server/mail/spool/

Seems to have stopped and seems to be functioning correctly.
