I am not sure whether symbolic links are supported by postfix.
But i do know that postfix can change it's mailqueue dir..It's a setting
grep '/var' main.cf :-) and change that to your new directory.
At least that is what i did and it worked. Since i am at work i cannot
provide a example, but if you wish, i can send you that later today.

Cheers!
