This is a partial list of useful commands related to postfix/sendmail for my own reference. It's posted here in case anyone else finds this useful, too.

Commands

    mailq

  • Read a message in the mail queue with example id 012345678F:

  • Delete a message in the mail queue with example id 012345678F:
