I think, this might only be the case if your postfix is configured to accept just one concurrent connection, i.e.

master.cf:
# service type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command + args
#               (yes)   (yes)   (no)    (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp      inet  n       -       n       -       1       smtpd

What do the postfix Logs say?

Cheers!
