        Reasonably. I had been running Potato but did a dist-upgrade.

        I note that in /etc/postfix/main.cf, the mail_spool_directory
entry has two values : /var/mail and /var/spool/mail . Both are commented
out, so I guess postfix is taking whatever the defaults is. The symlink
you mentioned exists.
