Methods
read_fileread_handleread_string
my $entries = Postfix::Parse::Mailq->read_string($string, \%arg);
This methods read the output of postfix's mailq from a file (by name), a filehandle, or a string,
respectively. They return an arrayref of hashrefs, each hashref representing one entry in the queue as
reported by mailq.
Valid arguments are:
spool - a hashref of { queue_id -> spool_name } pairs
if given, this will be used to attempt to indicate in which
spool messages currently are; it is not entirely reliable (race!)
parse_block
my $entry = Mailq->parse_block(\@lines);
Given all the lines in a single entry's block of lines in mailq output, this returns data about the
entry.

Warning
This code is really rough and the interface will change. Entries will be objects. There will be some
more methods. Still, the basics are likely to keep working, or keep pretty close to what you see here
now.
