That would be my guess too (or perhaps as some special "Debian-+postfix".

You might try

  ps -eo pid,user,group,comm | grep postfix

or similar. Or have a look at Posrfix's log file ownerships.

You might try making the log files in question world writable just
to see whether the problem disappears or this approach is a blind
alley (don't forget to revert that: leaving them world-writable
seems like asking for trouble).
