How to resend a message?
Hello, I typed the address in a message wrong. Pine copied ot to the sendmail folder anyway. But postfix saw the message that the address was wrong and put it in the mailq. (Fair enough). Question is: can I resnd the message with the correct address and if yes, how?

I fail to see how this is a postfix question! Go to the sent-folder, edit the mail, send it again. -- Ralf Hildebrandt Postfix - Einrichtung, Betrieb und Wartung Tel. +49 (0)30-450 570-155 http://www.computerbeschimpfung.de The Imperial Vendor or Contractor probably told them that droid armies don't need redundant command centers, nor any kind of high availability ... you're supposed to buy several, and cluster them.

I assume that the message is still queued because DNS lookup fails or because the (wrong) destination is not reachable. You can save a copy of the message with the postcat command (postcat -q queueID) and use that to resend your message. Postfix will return the mail as undeliverable in five days. Wietse

I could not find a way in pine (which does not mean that it's impossible of course).

Your logs can tell you whether the 'other side' accepted the message. -- Sahil Tandon
