0777 is a bad idea many unix-daemons even refuse to start BECAUSE permissions are way to wide open - aynother possibility is that your postfix is running in chroot which is a mistake that at least debian does as default and maybe ubuntu too however: to help you someone needs output of "postconf -n" and content of "master.cf", i bet there is no "n" in the chroot column
