selinux running on there? Is it impossible to just clone one of the
good systems and replace this problematic one?
Compare the installed packages between the systems, along with the
'systemctl' output to look for differences.
More details would help us help you.

I worked it out. journald.conf was set to MaxLevelStore=notice, so
it wasn't just postfix not logging, just that was the symptom picked up.
I really was missing something obvious. Now I need to work back to see

Thank you for support.
