If you can't clear the queue of individual messages, make your mailserver accept mail for veldy.com and send it all to /dev/null. Depending on your mail server software, you might have to tell your dns it's authoritative for veldy.com and make the MX point to your mailserver. I run qmail on some of my mailservers, and I'm pretty sure there's no way for me to remove individual messages without screwing stuff up.
