Re: postfix in the chroot environments
Shalom chris,
postfix in a chroot environment? Not exactly sure what you are geeting at. sendmail daemon is a limited priviledge daemon that receives mail for any system defined users and there fore needs access to /var/spool/mail at a minimum.
When you go to postfix it works the same way.
Are you asking that if the daemon is breached by some security problem that the session is chrooted?
Here are a few ideas:

http://www.postfix.org/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html

Re: postfix in the chroot environments
I haven't setup a chroot postfix myself. But there are some to-the-point documents in the postfix-doc package.
sudo apt-get install postfix-doc
firefox file:///usr/share/doc/postfix/html/INSTALL.html#hamlet
and
firefox file:///usr/share/doc/postfix/html/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html#chroot_setup
sudo apt-get install postfix-doc
firefox file:///usr/share/doc/postfix/html/INSTALL.html#hamlet
and
firefox file:///usr/share/doc/postfix/html/BASIC_CONFIGURATION_README.html#chroot_setup
