Check Sent Mail Status with mailq

I had a number of users informed me that their messages were "stuck in the queue or something hanging." Their concerns were confirmed after using the mailq command. After a brief investigation, it was discovered was a small hiccup with DNS.

Here's an example of the mailq output.
# mailq
or
# mailq -v
/var/spool/mqueue (19 requests)
