Users Cannot List the Mail Queue

By default, a user is not able to list queued mail sent by other users. The restrictmailq privacy option is set by default in the sendmail.cf file.

Listing of the mail queue is done either by entering the mailq command or the equivalent command, sendmail with the -bp option. These commands are in the Mail Management profile, and show mail only at labels dominated by the calling process.

See "To Permit Users to See the Mail Queue" for how to enable a user on a particular system to list the queue.
