Browse - computer tips - force postfix to deliver all waiting mail

Date: 2008jul3

Q.  How do I make postfix deliver all waiting mail?

A.  Run this command:

	postqueue -f

You might want to do this if your Internet connection was down but is now
back up.

About this option, the man page says:

       -f     Flush the queue: attempt to deliver all queued mail.

              This option implements the traditional "sendmail -q" command, by
              contacting the Postfix qmgr(8) daemon.

              Warning: flushing undeliverable mail frequently will  result  in
              poor delivery performance of all other mail.
