Not practical with 6 million messages in the queue, it would take
many hours (don't know how many) to process all that data. Just

        cd /var/spool/postfix;
        for d in maildrop incoming active hold deferred
        do
            echo $d $(find $d -print | wc -l)
        done

is all that is really practical with the backlog in question.
