pfqueue is a console-based tool for handling MTA queues.

pfqueue is an effort to give postqueue/mailq/postsuper/exim4 a console (ncurses) interface: it won't add any particular functionality to those provided with MTAs themselves, but will hopefully make them easier to use.

It's a real-time queue scanner, that shows per-queue lists of existing messages; the messages can be shown, deleted, put on hold, released or requeued.

Just for example, it may be useful to inspect a traffic jam at a given time, to see what is falling into and unexpectedly crowding your deferred queue.

Requirements:
· Postfix
· ncurses library

Installation:

The simplest way to compile this package is:

1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type 'sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute `configure' itself.

Running `configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.

2. Type `make' to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with the package.

4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.

What's New in This Release:
· This version is focused on the socket backend, and can now really monitor your MTA remotely.
· Reverse sorting has been added.
