I am having issues with my postfix install. When I telnet to port 25 and try to do any smtp commands the system doesn't respond. I see in my logs /var/lib/postfix/smtpd_tls_session_cache.db: Permission denied. I have chown of the /var/lib/postfix/ directory to postfix user and group postfix. I also see in my logs /usr/libexec/postfix/tlsmgr: bad command startup. How do you find out what the offending command is?
Make sure the postfix user can access (at least r & x) the /var and /var/lib directories as well.

This looks like the sendmail daemon to me. I would stop and disable it, at minimum, or, better, uninstall it if you want to use Postfix.
