postcat

POSTCAT(1)						      General Commands Manual							POSTCAT(1)

NAME

       postcat - show Postfix queue file contents

SYNOPSIS

       postcat [-bdehnoqv] [-c config_dir] [files...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  postcat(1)	command  prints the contents of the named files in human-readable form. The files are expected to be in Postfix queue file
       format. If no files are specified on the command line, the program reads from standard input.

       By default, postcat(1) shows the envelope and message content, as if the options -beh were specified. To view message content only, specify
       -bh (Postfix 2.7 and later).

       Options:

       -b     Show  body  content.   The  -b option starts producing output at the first non-header line, and stops when the end of the message is
	      reached.

	      This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.

       -c config_dir
	      The main.cf configuration file is in the named directory instead of the default configuration directory.

       -d     Print the decimal type of each record.

       -e     Show message envelope content.

	      This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.

       -h     Show message header content.  The -h option produces output from the beginning of the message up to, but not  including,	the  first
	      non-header line.

	      This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.

       -o     Print the queue file offset of each record.

       -q     Search the Postfix queue for the named files instead of taking the names literally.

	      This feature is available in Postfix 2.0 and later.

       -v     Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Multiple -v options make the software increasingly verbose.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Problems are reported to the standard error stream.

ENVIRONMENT

       MAIL_CONFIG
	      Directory with Postfix configuration files.

CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS

       The following main.cf parameters are especially relevant to this program.

       The text below provides only a parameter summary. See postconf(5) for more details including examples.

       config_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)
	      The default location of the Postfix main.cf and master.cf configuration files.

       queue_directory (see 'postconf -d' output)
	      The location of the Postfix top-level queue directory.
