    Well, it's not going to get fixed if we don't know what's wrong (!) :-).
    Since you can login to the box normally the problem is almost guarenteed
    to be something that postfix or some other program in the boot
    sequence is blocking on and never unblocking.  Figuring out what is
    blocking the boot sequence ought to be easy since you can ssh into the
    box by using 'ps axl' and other tools.
