You did not get the hint.. The "wrong" thing here is mail.*
Because your rotating now everything behind the mail.*
so also .1 .1.1 .1.1.1 etc etc, until you server explodes ;-)
You should have this in you postfix logrotate..
Try this.
/var/log/mail.info /var/log/mail.warn /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.log {
monthly
missingok
notifempty
delaycompress
compress
create 640 root adm
rotate 3650
size 10M
}
