If I understand Paul's setup correctly, Postfix isn't used at all for
inbound mail. There is no MX record that points to his Linux host IP
and his external provider, JustHost, does not forward the mail to his
Postfix daemon. Paul fetches all his mail from JustHost with fetchmail.
Please clarify if this is the case Paul. If it is, making changes to
the Postfix config files is irrelevant, and we shouldn't be discussing
Postfix at all as its not involved in your problems. And, if you're not
relaying mail through this Linux box, you could simply uninstall Postfix
altogether as it's not needed.
