If neither the pending, ok, return, or bad option is given, qconfirm lists the pending directory and appends to each address its current state.
check
check for each mail address in addresses its state in the qconfirm directory. The state can be either known, unknown, pending, or bad.
accept

drop
check for each mail address in addresses if the address currently is pending. If yes, tell qconfirm-check(1) to silently drop the message the next time qmail tries to deliver a message from this address.
bounce
check for each mail address in addresses if the address currently is pending. If yes, tell qconfirm-check(1) to bounce the message the next time qmail tries to deliver a message from this address.
pending
switch the state of each mail address back to pending.
remove
check for each mail address in addresses if the address is known. If yes, change its state to unknown.
