"You seem to be explicitly setting many parameters to their defaults." I removed a bunch, but might have missed some. That "command_directory" parameter I definitely didn't set. I think that's a result of building from source. "You have the address mappings happening before, which means that

Perfect, all of that makes sense. Here's 3 more: - The way I understand master.cf is that it spins up services. For instance, the smtp(d) service to accept incoming connections on port 25, or qmgr that handles the various queues (like active and deferred). For other services that wish
