The files are expected to be in Postfix queue file for- mat. If no <i>files</i> are specified on the command line, the program reads from standard input. By default, <a href="postcat.1.html"><b>postcat</b>(1)</a> shows the envelope and message content, as if the options <b>-beh</b> were specified. To view message content only, specify <b>-bh</b> (Postfix 2.7 and later). Options: <b>-b</b> Show body content. The <b>-b</b> option starts producing output at the first non-header line, and stops when the end of the message is reached. This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. <b>-c</b> <i>config</i><b>_</b><i>dir</i> The <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> configuration file is in the named directory instead of the default configuration directory. <b>-d</b> Print the decimal type of each record. <b>-e</b> Show message envelope content. This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. <b>-h</b> Show message header content. The <b>-h</b> option produces output from the beginning of the message up to, but not including, the first non-header line. This feature is available in Postfix 2.7 and later. <b>-o</b> Print the queue file offset of each record. <b>-q</b> Search the Postfix queue for the named <i>files</i> instead of taking the names literally. This feature is available in Postfix 2.0 and later. <b>-v</b> Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes. Multiple <b>-v</b> options make the software increasingly verbose. <b>DIAGNOSTICS</b> Problems are reported to the standard error stream. <b>ENVIRONMENT</b> <b>MAIL_CONFIG</b> Directory with Postfix configuration files. <b>CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS</b> The following <a href="postconf.5.html"><b>main.cf</b></a> parameters are especially relevant to this pro- gram.
