...something
qsize=$(mailq -OMaxQueueRunSize=1 -OQueueDirectory=$mq | grep 'Total 
requests:' | awk '{ print $3 }')
and something...

Not sure if this is what you want,
but I use a shell-script every 15 minutes to report if mailqueues are big, 
or any relays are having lots of mail in the queue.

It fills my needs, but it might be a bit of stupid programming, and really 
in need of rewriting before sharing. I think the idea still holds though.

Tell me if you want to try it, I would just love if someone could make some 
comments on it or preferably rewrite it.
