I just ran into this yesterday.  It's easy to fix:

# service postfix start
# chkconfig postfix --list
If it's turned off, do the following:
# chkconfig postfix on

I think that there's a bug in the postfix installer.  I had postfix running, 
did an rpm -Fvh on the postfix packages, and postfix was disabled.  This is a 
common problems with several packages (I just re-reported this with cups).
