Description Tobias Leupold 2013-01-29 11:35:26 UTC 
The default postfix installation complains about access rights of postqueue and postdrop when starting the postfix service:

[postfix/postfix-script] warning: not set-gid or not owner+group+world executable: /usr/sbin/postqueue
[postfix/postfix-script] warning: not set-gid or not owner+group+world executable: /usr/sbin/postdrop

This can be fixed by

chmod g+s /usr/sbin/postqueue
chmod g+s /usr/sbin/postdrop

Perhaps, this should already be done by the ebuild?

We already do:

# ls -l /var/tmp/portage/mail-mta/postfix-2.9.6/image/usr/sbin/post{drop,queue}
-rwx--s--x 1 root postdrop 184840 Feb  7 12:37 /var/tmp/portage/mail-mta/postfix-2.9.6/image/usr/sbin/postdrop
-rwx--s--x 1 root postdrop 221728 Feb  7 12:37 /var/tmp/portage/mail-mta/postfix-2.9.6/image/usr/sbin/postqueue

Please check your system if it does not work for you.
