Is this a new install of the package, or an upgrade?

Your report apparently excluded all debconf information, but this is almost
certainly a problem related to debconf and those values may be relevant to
understanding this bug.  Can you please forward this information?  The
output of "reportbug --debconf --template postfix" should be sufficient.

Please edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/postfix.postinst to add "set -x" as the
second line, and then try running it manually and capture the output.
