Well, CLI and from the GUI file-browser + gedit, but definitely by hand,

Reading /etc/postfix/virtual on the two boxes shows every single line 
commented out on both boxes.

To the best of my knowledge (obviously inadequate), nowhere, but I have 
the spade ready if you tell me where to dig!  <grin>
