My bet is that your PHP app is sending emails with httpd as sender. Someone has responded to such an email or the email has bounced and thus Postfix tries to deliver it to your httpd user. Sadly for Postfix, httpd has no home directory according to /etc/passwd. 'Permission denied' is a little bug and should obviously be 'No such file or directory'. The correct way to handle this is either to have your app use a valid mailbox as sender or redirect mail to httpd elsewhere (say forward it to yourself or /dev/null). Creating a mail storage for httpd is probably not what you want.
