mail questions

[Erico' Suave']

I came in this morning and got my email or at least tried to. For some reason an email is stuck in the queue. How do I go about locating it on my RH 5.0 machine. It is causing me to not get the rest of my email. Can anyone help?

Hmm...try running mailq -v for details.Usually mail gets for a reason (unable to contact remote host,wrong address,system misconfiguration,permission problem).Check maillog in /var/log directory.

Lastly kill the mail daemon (sendmail i think under redhat unless you use other MTA) then start it up by issuing /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -qm10m (the -qmXm flag will check que every ten minutes in this case).Hope this helps.
