This should use $data_directory rather than $queue_directory.
$data_directory must be a directory owned by $mail_owner (default
"postfix") and not used by any other programs. On most systems this
defaults to /var/lib/postfix.
On my systems (Debian 4 and 5), data_directory is not set!
And nothing points to /var/lib/postfix, which not even exists :-O

Ah, antique postfix version. That parameter was added a
couple years ago in postfix 2.5
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#data_directory
Even though your version doesn't have data_directory built-in,
you can add it to your main.cf:
data_directory = /var/lib/postfix
then type:
# mkdir /var/lib/postfix
# chown postfix /var/lib/postfix
