messages are stored in /var/mqm/qmgrs/qmgr-name/queues.

if you want to know information about messages in queues you should not work with these files, use the mq commands and tools instead.

use runmqsc to display the queue and the queuedepth to find out if there are messages on the queue.
use the sample programs link amqsbcg or some of the tools around (e.g. mop71, check the supportpacs) to browse the messages if you are interested in the message content.

read the system administration guide to find out how to handle mq.

For general interest, if you do neeed to know the file name for a qmgr object, you can do:
Code:
[wschutz@wschutz elton]$ dspmqfls -m WSCHUTZ -t q SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE
WebSphere MQ Display MQ Files

QLOCAL    SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE
/var/mqm/qmgrs/WSCHUTZ/queues/SYSTEM!DEFAULT!LOCAL!QUEUE



But...as Mr Butcher says, its usually better not to mess with the op sys files themselves.
