no, it isn't running:
There is not much point in looking anywhere for a solution for problems, until 
you have Postfix running.
Try         "service postfix start"      what happens?
if you would have read the thread you would have
seen that sysvinit believes it is started and say OK

/usr/sbin/postfix -c /etc/postfix start
or maybe on older systems before UsrMove
/sbin/postfix -c /etc/postfix start

would be a better chance to get REALLY output

I agree, but it might be a nice idea to see what happens with manual start. After all there is nothing in the logs that we have been told about that say it ever started, no matter what sysvint says.

What we have is :
    nothing listening on port 25, 465(?), 587.
master does not appear in the output of ps, if Postfix is running I would assume we should see it
    if you run "ps -A | grep master"

So what evidence is there that it was ever started, has it been added to the init. At the moment we have no evidence that it started, and certainly none that it started successfully.
