Summary: Thanks for all of the responses. I originally thought this
was a Postfix issue, but now I see that I was doing something invalid
in DNS. I'm surprised that my otherwise excellent nameserver provider
allowed me to do this.
I use wildcard MX records for mail, and a wildcard CNAME for web
traffic. For example:
*.example.com = MX record for mail.example.com
*.example.com = CNAME myapp.appspot.com
Email to b...@foo.example.com gets delivered to mail.example.com, and
web traffic to http://foo.example.com

MX records must not point to a CNAME.

This is invalid. No DNS domain can resolve
