In my personal case the mail server i'm working on is part of a complex
system where mail delivery is of primary importance and the system must
know if a message is deferred and the reason why.

By analizing xmail log files is possible to discovery if a message has
not been sent, then, by looking for the frozen message, one can know
that the message has bounced and why. If it is just deferred, there is
no frozen message and the only way to know why is to look for the
rsnd/slog pair in the spool tree.

Not that this is a big problem, in fact I was able to write a small
software to accomplish this, but I think that, conceptually, frozen and
deferred message are both problems that a system may want to be informed
about and new admin commands would make xmail more internally coherent.

Of course this is just my opinion, maybe I'm the only one in the world
with such needs :-)
