  Yes, I'd forgotten about mailq.  I used to use it myself.  The advantage of
the one-liner called 'peek.mailqueue' is that you then have an actual
list of filenames on the screen.  If you need to you can su to root and
operate on the filenames straightaway with cut and paste.  And it wouldn't
be called 'peek.mailqueue' if it weren't for command completion either.
