Hi All,

We're running Sendmail 8.13.8 on a number of FreeBSD systems - and we
need to write some software to move messages around the queues...

We're using Queue Groups - I've seen 'qtool.pl' - but that won't do
what we want, hence the need for our own software.

Checking in the newsgroup - even though 'qtool.pl' still contains
warnings of impending doom when used with queue groups - it looks
qtool.pl can be used with queue groups now?

Secondly - looking at the way qtool works - to 'move' a message between
queues, all we appear to have to do is:

1. Open the qf file of the message we want to move.
2. Make sure we flock() it in 'exclusive' mode
3. Move the qf, df files from one directory to another
4. Unflock the qf file, and close it

Obviously handling open() and flock() failures accordingly.

Does this seem Ok? - Is there any implication for moving a message from
one queue group to another with that - I can't specifically see
anything different qtool.pl does for queuegroups - other than detecting
that they're used.

Cheers,

Jon
