QMail::QueueHandler

Perl library for dealing with QMail queues

Introduction

QMail::QueueHandler is a Perl library for handling QMail mail queues.

It is based on qmHandle, a command line program written by Michele Beltrame, but rewritten to take advantage of modern Perl techniques.

The QMail::QueueHandler distribution contains a new version of qmHandle which has much the same functionality as the original version.
