ArgumentListTooLong

Argument list too long

Overview

This is a limitation in the Linux kernel. I often see this when deleting a ton of emails from a mailq that I didn't know existed. See http://www.moundalexis.com/archives/000035.php

Fix

find . -name '(file name here or wildcard)' -print0 | xargs -0 rm
