Hmmm... I am using the Debian provided main.cf when I used apt-get to
install their package version of Postfix. I can see that this is a
default value in "postconf -d" but when I run "postconf -n" I don't
see it listed. Does that mean my main.cf is not recognizing this
parameter?

[r...@mail ~]# postconf -d | grep -i mailbox_command
mailbox_command =
mailbox_command_maps =

[r...@mail ~]# postconf -n | grep -i mailbox_command
[r...@mail ~]#

Does that mean I should add it based on the following

    * To use maildir format in your mailbox which creates separate
files for each email you can use the following commands:
    * Maildir has few advantages over mbox format. (keeps emails in
separate files, allows for multiple application to read mail, etc)
    * Issue these commands:

postconf -e "home_mailbox = Maildir/"
postconf -e "mailbox_command ="
