Hi Ralph,
Indeed you are right I am running Post-Xim :-))
[root@mx ~]# ls -l /usr/bin/mailq
/usr/bin/mailq -> /usr/sbin/sendmail
[root@mx ~]# ls -l /etc/alternatives/mta-mailq
/etc/alternatives/mta-mailq -> /usr/bin/mailq.exim
[root@mx ~]#
I've investigated more, because is very unusual configuration. Someone
before me, installed postfix compilling it by hand. Postfix i started and
running (exim is stopped) but mailq and mta-mailq is pointing to exim
binaries. Now I would like to link mailq and /etc/alternatives/mta-mailq to
point to correct sendmail.postfix installation but I cannot find it. Where
should I look for it?
Digging around I found that postfix has been installed by hand 19 March 2009
[root@mx ~]# ls -l /usr/sbin/postsuper
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 331463 Mar 17 2009 /usr/sbin/postsuper
[root@mx ~]#
In usr sbin, I have (files dated with 17 march 2009)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 324K Mar 17 2009 postsuper
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root postdrop 514K Mar 17 2009 postqueue
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 469K Mar 17 2009 postmap
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 276K Mar 17 2009 postlog
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 297K Mar 17 2009 postlock
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 305K Mar 17 2009 postkick
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 273K Mar 17 2009 postfix
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root postdrop 473K Mar 17 2009 postdrop
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 557K Mar 17 2009 postconf
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 305K Mar 17 2009 postcat
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 493K Mar 17 2009 postalias
To what binary should point now: /usr/bin/mailq and
/etc/alternatives/mta-mailq. If matter, I am on centos-5.5.
Regards,
Alx

See below last 3 lines of mailq output:
[root@mx postfix]# mailq
...
2h 1.6K 1QCSdu-0001X3-Gl <> *** frozen ***
r...@mx.mydoom.com
86m 1.6K 1QCTZz-0003iI-Iz <> *** frozen ***
r...@mx.mydoom.com
26m 1.6K 1QCUW0-000605-PD <> *** frozen ***
r...@mx.mydoom.com
That's not postfix.
I am running postfix! exim exist on system but is not running.
Yes it is running. See above. That's exim output.
Your mailq binary uses exim instead of postfix.
