Wow, I had briefly looked at that but did not pickup on that postfix would
just grok the old config.

And, yes, I have the old config lying around.  I had to upgrade because the
hardware is now using UEFI and would not recognize the MBR.  But that has
all been handled and I am getting things back in working order, subject to
delays caused by my real life duties.
