showq

SHOWQ(8)						      System Manager's Manual							  SHOWQ(8)

NAME

       showq - list the Postfix mail queue

SYNOPSIS

       showq [generic Postfix daemon options]

DESCRIPTION

       The showq daemon reports the Postfix mail queue status.	It is the program that emulates the sendmail `mailq' command.

       The showq daemon can also be run in stand-alone mode by the super-user. This mode of operation is used to emulate the `mailq' command while
       the Postfix mail system is down.

SECURITY

       The showq daemon can run in a chroot jail at fixed low privilege, and takes no input from the client. Its service  port	is  accessible	to
       local untrusted users, so the service can be susceptible to denial of service attacks.

STANDARDS

       None. The showq daemon does not interact with the outside world.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Problems and transactions are logged to syslogd(8).

BUGS

       The showq daemon runs at a fixed low privilege; consequently, it cannot extract information from queue files in the maildrop directory.

SEE ALSO

       cleanup(8) canonicalize and enqueue mail
       pickup(8) local mail pickup service
       qmgr(8) mail being delivered, delayed mail
       syslogd(8) system logging

LICENSE

       The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
