The\nfiles are expected to be in Postfix queue file format. If no files are specified on the com‐\nmand line, the program reads from standard input.\n\nBy default, postcat(1) shows the envelope and message content, as if the options -beh were\nspecified. To view message content only, specify -bh (Postfix 2.7 and later).\n\nOptions:\n\n#### -b -b\n\nline, and stops when the end of the message is reached.\n\nThis feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.\n\n#### -c\n\nThe main.cf configuration file is in the named directory instead of the default con‐\nfiguration directory.\n\n#### -d\n\n#### -e\n\nThis feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.\n\n#### -h -h\n\nmessage up to, but not including, the first non-header line.\n\nThis feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later.\n\n#### -o\n\n#### -q\n\nThis feature is available in Postfix 2.0 and later.\n\n#### -v -v\n\nincreasingly verbose.\n\n### DIAGNOSTICS\n\nProblems are reported to the standard error stream.\n\n### ENVIRONMENT\n\nMAILCONFIG\nDirectory with Postfix configuration files.\n\n### CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS\n\nThe following main.cf parameters are especially relevant to this program.\n\nThe text below provides only a parameter summary. See postconf(5) for more details including\nexamples.\n\nconfigdirectory (see 'postconf -d' output)\nThe default location of the Postfix main.cf and master.cf configuration files.\n\nimportenvironment (see 'postconf -d' output)\nThe list of environment parameters that a privileged Postfix process will import from\na non-Postfix parent process, or name=value environment overrides.\n\nqueuedirectory (see 'postconf -d' output)\nThe location of the Postfix top-level queue directory.\n\n### FILES\n\n/var/spool/postfix, Postfix queue directory\n\n### SEE ALSO\n\npostconf(5), Postfix configuration\n\n### LICENSE\n\nThe Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.\n\nAUTHOR(S)\nWietse Venema\nIBM T.J.
