NAME

       mailq - Displays the contents of the mail queue

SYNOPSIS

       mailq [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       The  mailq  command  displays  a  list  of  messages in the mail queue.	The mailq command is the same as the sendmail command with the -bp
       option; see sendmail for more information.

EXAMPLES

       The mailq command lists the mail  queue	as  shown  in  the  following  example:       Mail  Queue  (1  request)  --QID---  -Size-    ---Q-
       Time-------    --Sender/Recipient--- AA002508	3  Thu Dec 17 10:01	    root The mailq -v command lists the mail queue as shown in the
       following  example:	  Mail	 Queue	 (1   request)	 --QID---  -Size-    -Priority-     ---Q-Time----  -Sender/Recipient-	AA002508
       3  1005	    Dec 17 10:01       root

	      (Output might be formatted differently on your system.)

	      The  fields  have  the following meaning: Contains the message queue ID of the message.  Contains the number of bytes in the body of
	      the message (header information not included).  Contains the priority of the message.  Contains the date that  the  message  entered
	      the  queue.   Contains  the  user ID of the sender (first), and then the user ID of the receiver of the message.	In this example, a
	      message also indicates the status of the message.
