If your server is running and postfix is logging normally and there are
no log entries for the missing message, it means that the message isn't
making it as far as your postfix server, it's not a postfix problem and
you need to look elsewhere.

Even if it's being eaten by another app (amavis, a poorly written
filter, etc.), there will still be a log entry showing where postfix
accepted or rejected the message. No log entry means you're looking in
the wrong place.
