http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#mailq_path Sendmail compatibility feature that specifies where the Postfix mailq(1) command is installed. This command can be used to list the Postfix mail queue. > Do all of these need to be set?

Perhaps you're better of with - uninstall Postfix - reinstall Postfix and only after doing that edit Postfix config files. Wietse
