The files are expected to be in Postfix queue file 18 format. If no <i>files</i> are specified on the command line, the program 19 reads from standard input. 20 21 By default, <a href="postcat.1.html"><b>postcat</b>(1)</a> shows the envelope and message content, as if 22 the options <b>-beh</b> were specified. To view message content only, specify 23 <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 output at the 28 first non-header line, and stops when the end of the message is 29 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 directory instead 35 of the default configuration directory. 36 37 <b>-d</b> Print the decimal type of each record. 38 39 <b>-e</b> Show message envelope content. 40 41 This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. 42 43 <b>-h</b> Show message header content. The <b>-h</b> option produces output from 44 the beginning of the message up to, but not including, the first 45 non-header line. 46 47 This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. 48 49 <b>-o</b> Print the queue file offset of each record. 50 51 <b>-q</b> Search the Postfix queue for the named <i>files</i> instead of taking 52 the names literally. 53 54 This feature is available in Postfix 2.0 and later. 55 56 <b>-r</b> Print records in file order, don't follow pointer records. 57 58 This feature is available in Postfix 3.7 and later. 59 60 <b>-s</b> <i>offset</i> 61 Skip to the specified queue file offset. 62 63 This feature is available in Postfix 3.7 and later. 64 65 <b>-v</b> Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes.
