nothing in /var/log/messages.  Nothing in that directory updated at the
time of the attempted add.  Where else do I look for logs used by
postfixadmin and the other related apps?

Thus the ask for help where to troubleshoot.

I suspect that some common log that is not where I would think to look
for was what I need to see.
