My first time with this. I got postfix, mysql, and postfixadmin setup, generally following

I used postfixadmin to create my domain then added my first user and got an error:
Send Welcome mail: yes
Unable to send email! The mailbox has been added to the mailbox table, but none (or only some) of the predefined sub-folders could be created (faxit@test.htt-consult.com)
There is nothing under /home/vmail (in postfix/main.cf: virtual_mailbox_base = /home/vmail)
Advise on where to start troubleshooting?
The logs, clues if not the actual solution will most likely be found there.
nothing in /var/log/messages. Nothing in that directory updated at the time of the attempted add. Where else do I look for logs used by postfixadmin and the other related apps?
Perhaps a password or permissions not right?
Maybe maybe not. There is no way to tell from the information you provide. You have to help yourself before anyone here can help you.
I did not find anything informative. No logs that I saw being updated. Thus the ask for help where to troubleshoot.
I suspect that some common log that is not where I would think to look for was what I need to see.
