I have got approx. 50k emails stuck in app/spool folder. I had try to run the mail process script /app/console mautic:email:process --env=prod manually or by cron job but nothing happened, the spool is still not moving.  
  
  
  
How can I force the queue out?

i understand this is a very old thread, but just in case if someone else is looking for an answer, try the following command

/bin/console swiftmailer:spool:send
