Tony -

Couple of possibilities:
1) The messages were stuck, but they've since been cleared out. When is the
last time you had this behavior (ie - was it two weeks ago, or this
morning)? Was it the same messages being resent as were originally resent in
May?

2) The messages are stuck somewhere other than in the temp tables. It's also
possible these messages could be stuck in the Mailroot "queue" folder on the
file system.
