Drew,

Went on vacation for a week, come back to see that
my email server is
reporting that its comepletely full. Look a little
deeper into it and I
see that people have uploaded tons of MP3's,
Warez, etc.. 

Sounds like this was more than an email server. 
Sounds like it had IIS and FTP running as well.  What
you describe is indicative of the FTP server being
configured so that the anonymous user has write access
to the drive.

Anyone got a tool that
will allow me to just delete the directory and all
the subdirectories
this stuff is in? 

Have you tried "rmdir /s" ?  Also, 'del' or 'erase'
with the /F switch looks like they might be helpful.
