When working with Postfix, try to forget everything related to
Apache, essentially none of that is relevant to Postfix. Your

Don't tweak configuration variables, instead start with a default
configuration and apply a small set of carefully selected changes.
inet_interfaces = all
is a good start for accepting remote mail.
