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? ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
