vqueue

vqueue is a cli utility that is used to inspect and manage vSMTP’s queues.

Managing queues

Internal and user defined queues can be managed using the vqueue command with root privileges.

The vqueue show subcommand displays a summary of vSMTP queues in a Postfix qshape way. The -c option allows vqueue to parse queues and quarantines defined in the configuration.

Managing messages

Like queues, messages are also managed using the vqueue command.

• vqueue msg <msg-id> show [json | eml] : Print the content of a message.
• vqueue msg <msg-id> move <queue> : Move a message to a queue.
• vqueue msg <msg-id> remove : Remove a message from disk.
