Hi,

I use the patch of check_mailq submitted by Don Badrak.
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=880904&group_id=29880&atid=397599

I don't understand the result of this plugin.

When i execute the following command in local mode, i obtain:

[nagios-14XT2ufUFtE at public.gmane.org libexec]$./check_mailq -w 20 -c 50 -f /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.delivery (to take the queue directory /var/spool/mqueue1)

OK: mailq is empty|unsent=0;20;50;0


Whereas the queue directory /var/spool/mqueue1 contains a lot of files.

[nagios-14XT2ufUFtE at public.gmane.org libexec]$ ls -la /var/spool/mqueue1|more
total 19208

Why does it find the queue directory is empty?

As i'm not a programmer, can someone answer to my question and help me?

My OS is a linux v2.4.

Carole.
