I use postfix in a multiple MailScanner systems. One thing I found is that the postfix update reset the rights on the /var/spool/postfix directory and subdirectories from postfix.root and postfix.postdrop to root.root. I would receive mail all day long but they just sat in the queue and didn't go anywhere. Not sure if this is your problem but would be worth a look.
That's plausible. And in fact, I do see a number of dirs with owner:group set to root:root under /var/spool/postfix.
But, I have no idea what the permissions should be. How did you figure it out?
BTW, I'm running postfix in a chroot, though I'm not sure why that would break it now when it didn't in the past (there are no errors when postfix is started).
