Move the mqueue directory to something like mqueue-temp and make a
new one with same permissions/owners (do this with sendmail stopped)
then start sendmail, once load is low enough you can start a new sendmail
process to process that mqueue-temp like this:

 sendmail -q -oQ/full/path/to/mqueue-temp

If for some peverse reason you want to watch the mail being processed, add
a -v flag to the command line above.

This will run through the queue once. It will have to be run several times
for all the deliverable messages to be delivered

To just run the main queue do sendmail -q -v (or leave off the -v to not
see output).
