It would be:

  cd /usr/local/etc
  mv postfix postfix.old
  ln -s ../../../etc/postfix postfix

And yes I did try that.  postfix gets upset that config_directory is
not a directory and refuses to do anything.  If this did work I would
have to copy over bounce.cf.default and main.cf.default and maybe
should copy over LICENSE and TLS_LICENSE.

It also didn't like a symlink to the main.cf file.

The workaround is to change 2 lines in /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf
and then put the real configuration in /etc/postfix/main.cf (which
still needs the same 2 lines).

Its a minor bug but it might be very easy to fix.
