If log rotation regularly causes the syslog server to
recreate the logging socket, and that log socket is
outside the chroot jail, then chrooted processes will
cease to be able to log.
If a "postfix reload" causes logging to start working
again, and you have chroot enabled for some services
(e.g the queue manager), then that's the most likely
problem.
