mailq(1M)                                                         mailq(1M)

NAME
     mailq - print the mail queue

SYNOPSIS
     mailq [-v]

DESCRIPTION
     mailq prints a summary of the mail messages queued for future
     delivery.

     The first line printed for each message shows the internal identifier
     used on this host for the message, the size of the message in bytes,
     the date and time the message was accepted into the queue, and the
     envelope sender of the message. The second line shows the error mes-
     sage that caused this message to be retained in the queue; it will not
     be present if the message is being processed for the first time. The
     following lines show message recipients, one per line.

     mailq is identical to sendmail -bp.

OPTIONS
     -v   Prints verbose information. This adds the priority of the message
          and a single character indicator ("+" or blank) indicating
          whether a warning message has been sent on the first line of the
          message. Additionally, extra lines may be intermixed with the
          recipients indicating the "controlling user" information; this
          shows who will own any programs that are executed on behalf of
          this message and the name of the alias this command expanded
          from, if any.

DIAGNOSTICS
     The mailq utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
