Additionally when I try and execute the commands given in post 2 I get
contradictory error messages.

>adduser --system --no-create-home --disabled-password --ingroup postfix postfix
The user `postfix' already exists. Exiting.

>usermod -g postfix postfix
usermod: user 'postfix' does not exist in /etc/passwd

So thats confusing me a little.
