OK, though I somehow forgot to merge my settings into the new
.cf files on one machine.  It ran with the out-of-box config
for a few days (not using a relayhost) -- which worked fine
until I tried to send mail to a destination that didn't accept
mail from dynamic IP addresses.

I think the config file syntax for database files has changed a
little bit.  IIRC, in the config file I had to prepend "hash:"
onto a file's path name to make the new postfix happy.
