Both sendmail and postfix have the "mailq" command, which lists pending 
email.  Postfix also has the "postsuper" command.  You can delete pending 
messages via "postsuper -d <message queue ID>.

I'm not aware of anything that will let you properly edit a messaage 
that's already been queued, though.
