The files are expected to be 18 in Postfix queue file format. If no <i>files</i> are specified on 19 the command line, the program reads from standard input. 20 21 By default, <a href="postcat.1.html"><b>postcat</b>(1)</a> shows the envelope and message con- 22 tent, as if the options <b>-beh</b> were specified. To view mes- 23 sage content only, specify <b>-bh</b> (Postfix 2.7 and later). 24 25 Options: 26 27 <b>-b</b> Show body content. The <b>-b</b> option starts producing 28 output at the first non-header line, and stops when 29 the end of the message is reached. 30 31 This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. 32 33 <b>-c</b> <i>config</i><b>_</b><i>dir</i> 34 The <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> configuration file is in the named 35 directory instead of the default configuration 36 directory. 37 38 <b>-d</b> Print the decimal type of each record. 39 40 <b>-e</b> Show message envelope content. 41 42 This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. 43 44 <b>-h</b> Show message header content. The <b>-h</b> option pro- 45 duces output from the beginning of the message up 46 to, but not including, the first non-header line. 47 48 This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. 49 50 <b>-o</b> Print the queue file offset of each record. 51 52 <b>-q</b> Search the Postfix queue for the named <i>files</i> 53 instead of taking the names literally. 54 55 This feature is available in Postfix 2.0 and later. 56 57 <b>-v</b> Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Mul- 58 tiple <b>-v</b> options make the software increasingly 59 verbose. 60 61<b>DIAGNOSTICS</b> 62 Problems are reported to the standard error stream. 63 64<b>ENVIRONMENT</b> 65 <b>MAIL_CONFIG</b> 66 Directory with Postfix configuration files. 67 68<b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b> 69 The following <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> parameters are especially relevant 70 to this program. 71 72 The text below provides only a parameter summary.
