After /var/log/maillog has rotated, postfix doesn't log anything to the new log file till i restart syslog. It doesn't matter if i reload or restart postfix.

You don't need to restart syslog, merely send it a SIGHUP

Is this a normal behaviour with this log file and if yes why?

Yes.

Postfix doesn't write to the file directly, it sends its messages to
syslog which writes according to the mail.* entries in syslog.conf

Check the existing syslog logrotate entry.


Thank you!
