NAME
mq - print the contents of the mail queue
SYNTAX
mq
[-w]
[-n]
[-v]
[-f [name]]
[-t [name]]

DESCRIPTION
By default,
mq
lists the contents of the mail queue in the same format as
sendmail
when invoked as mailq except that
items in the queue without a control file are not displayed by mq.
That is,
it displays an error message (if any), the queue identification code,
file size, queue time, sender, and recipient(s) for each entry in the
queue
so that the result can fit into 80 columns of standard output.
Options

If

is specified, mq lists only messages with

contain the string
