I'm using an RPM and they are all in /usr/doc/postfix*/

Unless you're using something really twisted like regex-based virtual user
tables :)  I'll admit it's a nice feature but the virtual file is horrible
to edit...
e.g.

/^(.*)\@xanthein\.net$/                         jon+$1+xanthein.net

*shudder*

And that's just to send an entire domain to a single mailbox!

Oh and another hint for debugging postfix - tail -f /var/log/maillog
Postfix is *very* good in regards to error reporting.
