Get qmailanalog for log analysis. The matchup script will output the
pending deliveries (with the info you require) to fd#5. this makes it
easy to carry it from matchup to matchup (see man matchup).

No, there is only one queue for local and one queue for remote. The
23-way split is just to avoid too many files in one directory (e.g. 200
in each of 23 directories rather than 4600 in one). This is to make
access faster for very large queues. The local and remote destinations
are processed by different programs, but the message is still stored
only once in queue/mess.

it's the same message file name. QP is the pid of the qmail-queue
process.
