[KLUG Members] smtp mail stuff

[Adam Bultman]

More fun is sendmail -v -q.  I purged one of my queues this morning on a
server, and oops-- it had many messages in it, and You get to see them
all go by.


Tip: make a daily cron job to purge the mail queue.  That way, any item
that stalls initially will get sent.
