Got all the Postfix errors fixed but maybe one, so I don't think that's
involved in this mix any more.
I had a domain definition problem, got that sorted.
The accounts' logins are correct. I tried several from the shell, and
they let me in.
Here's the minus-n output, not very different from the first time I
posted it:
