Package: postfix
Version: 2.5.5-1.1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/sbin/postqueue

It would be sensible/nice if mailq/postqueue -p would output queue
entries sorted by arrival time.

I am having a hard time coming up with reasons why this shouldn't be
done by default, but assuming that performance/memory play a role
(again, I can hardly imagine), this could be implemented as an
option, either in main.cf or the command-line.

While at it, I should be able to choose to sort
decreasing/increasing.

And because there's still space in this email, I can toss in sorting
by sending address; sorting by recipients makes little sense, unless
one just wants to sort by the first pending recipient.
