NAME

       Postfix::Parse::Mailq - parse the output of the postfix mailq command

VERSION

       version 1.001

SYNOPSIS

	   use Postfix::Parse::Mailq;

	   my $mailq_output = `mailq`;
	   my $entries = Postfix::Parse::Mailq->read_string($mailq_output);

	   my $bytes = 0;
	   for my $entry (@$entries) {
	     next unless grep { /@aol.com$/ } @{ $entry->{remaining_rcpts} };
	     $bytes += $entry->{size};
	   }

	   print "$bytes bytes remain to send to AOL destinations
";

WARNING

       This code is really rough and the interface will change.  Entries will be objects.  There will be some more methods.  Still, the basics are
       likely to keep working, or keep pretty close to what you see here now.

METHODS

   read_file
   read_handle
   read_string
	   my $entries = Postfix::Parse::Mailq->read_string($string, \%arg);

       This methods read the output of postfix's mailq from a file (by name), a filehandle, or a string, respectively.	They return an arrayref of
       hashrefs, each hashref representing one entry in the queue as reported by mailq.

       Valid arguments are:

	   spool - a hashref of { queue_id -> spool_name } pairs
		   if given, this will be used to attempt to indicate in which
		   spool messages currently are; it is not entirely reliable (race!)

   parse_block
	   my $entry = Mailq->parse_block(@lines);

       Given all the lines in a single entry's block of lines in mailq output, this returns data about the entry.
