I managed to get about 1,100 SPAM messages into the receiving queue and I would like a quick way to move them to the spam queue (so they will get removed). I thought about manipulating the SQL database directly, but I can't find the correct tables and columns to change to move a ticket from one queue to another. I think I can use a SELECT statement with "where a_subject like '%text%'" to find the tickets I need to move, but can someone explain how the tickets are assigned to queues (or point me to some documentation on this)? I'm running version 1.2.4, so if there is a better way to do this in this or a newer version, I'd be willing to upgrade or take another approach. Thanks for the help and the great product!

I forgot you have to upgrade to 1.3.* for this. Then there is a easy to use webinterface for the GenericAgent. Yom Yom Schutte wrote:

Please don't manipulate the queue directly via the database! that could result in a inconsistent system if you don't know exactly, what your are doing... [...]

I'd update to 2.0- beta2 and use the bulk action for tickets. Or if the mails are marked as spam you could use the gneric agent to move all mails automaticly to another queue.
