Sadly, Debian settings try to balance best practice and backwards
compatibility with older Debian releases whose settings are sometimes no
longer best practice. You can simply, as the "root" superuser, execute
(sans example '#' prompt):
# postconf -F '*/*/chroot=n'
# postfix reload
which will update your master.cf file to globally turn off chroot for
all services. There's no prize for sticking with the legacy config.
