This is something I am having problems with using USB2 connected
external storage.

The USB filesystems are not initialized when it is time for mount ...
therefore I need to do a noauto in /etc/fstab and mount them later in
the boot process.

This caused httpd to not start (as there was a directory used as the
DocumentRoot for a Virtual Machine on the USB drive).

Is it possible that you are mounting a filesystem after the postfix
tries to start ... and it is available after startup but not at
init.d/postfix start time?
