I’m not sure how to turn off debug logging - the macOS X included version of
postfix logs to Apple’s unified system log. The way I view logs in realtime is:
/usr/bin/log stream --predicate '(process == "smtpd") || (process == "smtp") ||
(process == "qmgr") || (process == "cleanup") || (process == "postqueue") ||
(process == "postsuper") || (process == "local")' --debug --info
When I run that WITHOUT the --debug flag, the output is the same. Is there
another process I could add to that list that might provide more info?
(I’d LOVE to figure out how to get postfix to bypass that annoying logging
system and to just go back to writing its own log file at /var/log/mail.log.)

Does the fact that everything works over SMTP but not via the `mail` command
indicate anything or provide any leads?
