Oh, I've got it running now, but I still think the documentation is weak.
mail_spool_directory is a configuration file setting that is not mentioned
anywhere in any of the Postfix documentation, and yet the comments in the 
sample/default configuration file make it seem quite important.

I've sent that to Weitse as a documentation bug.  Maybe an article about 
it in DN would encourage someone to update the docs?  ;^)
