Make the default Postfix instance a local submission-only MTA:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
inet_interfaces =
mydestination =
myorigin = my.domain
# Use "localhost" as my name to avoid 'mail loops to myself" errors.
myhostname = localhost.my.domain
relayhost = 127.0.0.1
Have a secondary MTA listen on network interfaces:
/etc/postfix-secondary/main.cf:
inet_interfaces = 127.0.0.1, 192.168.x.x, 80.y.y.y
This MTA would be started once all the interfaces are up.
There is no quick fix for what you are asking; basically that
requires a change in the inet_interfaces handling for Postfix
non-daemon programs. Such a change would make sense, but you don't
want to wait for that to happen.
