Not there still.  In /var/www/html  I created .htaccess:

# ls -lstra
total 12
4 drwxr-xr-x. 4 root root   4096 Feb  6 16:06 ..
4 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root   4096 Feb 17 13:32 .
4 -rw-r--r--. 1 root apache   21 Feb 17 13:32 .htaccess

# cat .htaccess
         Require all granted


restarted httpd, and still get the error.

Does the conf file that contains the "/usr/share/postfixadmin" alias
also contain a Directory block? Something like this:

Alias /postfixadmin /usr/share/postfixadmin

<Directory "/usr/share/postfixadmin">

...stuff here...

</Directory>

Look for the old style "Order Deny,Allow" and "Deny from
All" and remove them if it does, and put the "Require all
granted" there.

Do you have an authz.conf file?

Pingo.  I had a 'allow from all' there.  Changed it to:

# cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/postfixadmin.conf
alias /mailadmin /usr/share/postfixadmin
<Directory "/usr/share/postfixadmin">
         AllowOverride AuthConfig
#        allow from all
         Require all granted
</Directory>

and it works.

THANKS.

Going to have to seriously read  that upgrading page...

No authz.conf anywhere on the system.  Thanks for the advice, but I got 
it now.

That's not how the .htaccess file works. It needs to be in the
directory specified in the postfixadmin.conf file?- i.e. the
configuration 

<Directory "/usr/share/postfixadmin">
???????? AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>

means to look in the .htaccess file in /usr/share/postfixadmin when
accessing any file in that directory (and below) for authorisation
information.

Putting it in /var/www/html will have no effect.
