          qqqqmmmmaaaaiiiillll----sssseeeennnndddd is going to  preprocess  a  queued  message.
          The message number, _m, is its disk inode number.  After
          a message is removed from the queue, its number can  be
          reused immediately.

          Message _m contains _b bytes; its envelope sender  is  _s;
