Here are the commands I used to create vmail account:

mkdir /home/vmail
chmod 770 /home/vmail
useradd -r -u 101 -g mail -d /home/vmail -s /sbin/nologin -c "Virtual
mailbox" vmail
chown vmail:mail /home/vmail

Looking around a bit, there are some log files under
/var/lib/mysql/postfix, one timed to the add user attempt.  It does not
display with cat.  Some binary format.
