Yup, there was a 2nd setting nearly at the bottom of the file, and it was different. Thanks for catching that.
This is why you *always* go by what output pof postconf -n says, not what you think you put in main.cf.
You wasted a lot of time (yours and others here) on that unnecessarily...
My main.cf file has the comments (my own that explains why settings are there, not the default comments). It is the easier to read file. Even then, I was also reading the postconf -n output and just didn't see the subtle difference (I was thinking more along the lines of "what else is needed"). What might be needed to avoid things like this is something to compare them. Or maybe postfix giving an error when a conflicting setting is encountered (or is there some basis for always allowing settings that change previous settings).
