What command should be used to print a listing of email in the system's mail queue?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The mailq command prints the list of messages that are in the mail queue. The mail queue is where outgoing mail is stored until a receiving server connection is available. The mailq command is the same as the sendmail -bp command, which also prints the mail queue.The mailq command is part of the topic 108.3: Mail transfer agent (MTA) basics, which is one of the objectives of the LPI Linux Administrator - 102 exam12.Reference:1: https://learning.lpi.org/en/learning-materials/102-500/2: https://www.lpi.org/our-certifications/exam-102-objectives/

lpq is for printers, so that's out. B is the best choice!

Yeah, D seems more about sending mail, not listing.

I’m pretty sure it’s mailq, but I might be mixing it up with another command. I’ll have to double-check.
