'mailq' will still show the contents of the queue (sendmail or postfix), so you can see the contents.

To clear out the queue however, you need to look at the contents of the 'master.cf' to verify the 'queue_directory'.

On my RH box, it defaults to '/var/spool/postfix/'.

This is sooo old of a reply, but
you can use postsuper -d all and that will delete the queue.
