imsimta kill

The imsimta kill utility immediately and indiscriminately terminates the specified process. This command is equivalent to the UNIX kill -9 command. The process is terminated even if it is in the middle of transferring email. So use of the imsimta shutdown utility, which performs an orderly shutdown, is generally preferable.
