Sudo mailqcom

A Unix command!

mailq is a command used to display the mail queue, which is a list of emails that are waiting to be delivered to their final destinations. The sudo command is used to run the command with superuser privileges, which is necessary to access the mail queue.

When you run sudo mailq, you'll see a list of emails that are currently in the mail queue, along with information about each email, such as:

The sender's email address
The recipient's email address
The size of the email
The status of the email (e.g. "deferred", "pending", etc.)

Here's an example output:

Mail queue info:
  Total requests: 5
  Top request: 1234 ([email protected])
  Deferred: 3
  Pending: 2

  Mail queue:
  #  Status      Sender         Recipient         Size   Time
  1  deferred    user1@example  user2@example    1024  2023-02-20 14:30:00
  2  pending     user3@example  user4@example    512   2023-02-20 14:35:00
  3  deferred    user5@example  user6@example    2048  2023-02-20 14:40:00
  4  pending     user7@example  user8@example    1024  2023-02-20 14:45:00
  5  deferred    user9@example  user10@example   4096  2023-02-20 14:50:00

The output will vary depending on the specific mail server and the emails that are currently in the queue.
