Subject:   mailq is not properly showing information
Message-ID:  <20020726203517.J14198-100000@borg-cube.com>

When I run the 'mailq' command as a normal user, it no longer displays the
information about the message(s) in the queue (from, to, error condition
[if any], etc.).  Example:

[dburr@borg-cube:137 .dupes]% mailq
                /var/spool/mqueue (4 requests)
-----Q-ID----- --Size-- -----Q-Time----- ------------Sender/Recipient-----------

g6QLh6ml007604 (Permission denied)
g6R3Z6ml014176 (Permission denied)
g6R3ZBml014188 (Permission denied)
                Total requests: 4
[dburr@borg-cube:138 .dupes]%

However, if I run the command as root, it displays the information
properly:

[dburr@borg-cube:101 .dupes]# mailq
                /var/spool/mqueue (4 requests)
-----Q-ID----- --Size-- -----Q-Time----- ------------Sender/Recipient-----------

I figure this has something to do with the new version of Sendmail.  Is
there any way to fix this?

Thanks,
Donald
