No. This is wrong, the incoming queue contains fairly fresh mail.

OK, so the active queue has 20,000 single-recipient messages.

Then fresh mail should be showing up in the active queue, but your
qshape output reports none. you mentioned the ever-broken MailScanner,
which manipulates the Postfix queue in unsupported ways, how many files
are in your "hold" queue? Disable MainScanner and see whether you still
have problems. MailScanner is not supported here...
Post NON-VERBOSE LOGGING by smtp(8) and qmgr(8).
logfiles=/some/where
egrep 'postfix/(qmgr|smtp)\[' $logfiles | tail -100
Also post any signs of trouble:
egrep ': (error|fatal|panic): ' $logfiles | tail -100
And potential trouble:
egrep ': warning: ' $logfiles | tail -20
