Basically, I am running Dada Mail (formerly mojo mail) list program and I send out mailing lists with newsletters. This causes a delay in me receiving my emails. I want to check the mail queue on the server and I was wondering how would I do it?
I got RH 9.0. Thanks...
Full Version: How do I check the mail queue on my server?
hmm basically this is not a how to....
whatever...to check mail queue
#mailq
whatever...to check mail queue
#mailq
Yes, that is exactly what I did on the rackshack server
[root@srv1 log]# mailq
-bash: mailq: command not found
I ran the exact same command on my other Fedora server..
[root@srv1 httpd]# mailq
/home/virtual/FILESYSTEMTEMPLATE/services/sendmail/mqueue is empty
Total requests: 0
This is what I didn't understand
Any thoughts?

this is your mail queue, which has been your question in your first post
i mean what does this show me?
emails sent out?
being sent out?
or waiting to be sent out...

it's the QUEUE
Yes, I guess so. Just don't know if that is the queue of emails going out of the server or is it the queue of emails waiting to be checked by me?
Btw, the command of check the number of messages waiting to be sent on the server is:
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qstat
How to force qmail to process all messages in queue immediately?
If you send ALRM signal to the qmail-send process, Qmail will try to process all messages in queue again immediately.
# ps ax | grep qmail-send
# kill -ALRM
