sendmail -q

(to process all emails in the queue - won't return until their all done)

-or-

sendmail -qRsomedomainname.com

where 'somedomainname.com' is a domain name for mails sitting in your queue.
The sendmail command will only process those entries then return...

This assumes your using Sendmail :-)
