re-process mail queue

[Zhang Weiwu]

Hello. I'm using dial-up ADSL, So my notebook isn't always on-line. I have 
sendmail enabled.

Now the problem is, mailq showed that

#mailq
               /var/spool/mqueue (6 requests)

               Total requests: 6

I already know my ICP's DNS server has some problems these days, that about 
1/3 dns request fails for unknown reasons (retry serveral times fixes). Now 
the emails are seriously delayed, but how to ask sendmail to try to re-send 
all these emails? Yes, sendmail will try to send it some time that it will 
decide, but that can be a time when I'm lucky to have no ADSL connection. I 
want sendmail to send them "right now", how to do it?
