Do I understand you correctly that you're running two (or more)
instances of postfix?
This is what I use on Sarge for two instances. It's easily expandable
to handle more. You'll see the config dir for the second instance
is /etc/postfix-out:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Start or stop TWO Postfix Instances
# Assumes first instance config files are in /etc/postfix
# and second instance files are in /etc/postfix-out
#
# For Debian Linux 3.0.
#
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/postfix
NAME=Postfix

echo -n "Starting mail transport agent: Postfix"
