Thanks for the link. I followed those steps and it worked. I wasn't stopping postfix before I copied the existing queue.

Everything works now.

Thanks again.

I'm looking to move the postfix directory from /var/spool/postfix to

Did you stop Postfix before making this change to main.cf?  In your
follow-up, include the output of 'postconf -n'.

I reload and postfix will no longer send mail. All the subfolders are
created underneath the /opt/postfix directory with the proper permissions
and ownership, but it's not actively working.

This is an insufficient problem description; please show relevant logs.

After relocating, I tried:

/etc/postfix/post-install create-missing

but still didn't work. I got a public/maildrop missing or something.

"or something"?  Logs.

It seems there should be an easy way to do this. So what is the easiest
way to relocate the queue directory?
