According to the 3rd edition Sendmail book from O'Reilly, you can select
a subset of queued messages to process.  This is on page 462, section
11.8.2.3.  You can select by the queue id, recipient, sender or any
combination of those options.

/usr/sbin/sendmail -qIj8UFRokM015345

or just use a substring

/usr/sbin/sendmail -qIj8URok

Should flush the message with the queue id of j8UFRokM015345.

You can also negate the selection (in Sendmail 8.12 and above)

/usr/sbin/sendmail -q\!Ij8UFRokM015345

So, it should be possible in Webmin to select a message and have a flush
selected button.
