Hi :

It seems you are not including a disable or start of the postfix service, or 
the amavis service.  

 That would definitely cause problems if your file system is not mounted, and 
the MTA is running and accepting mail immediately after startup.

update-rc.d postfix disable
update-rc.d amavis disable

I would start amavis then postfix after wallace, and before apache.

service start amavis
service start postfix

Additionally, if you have setup any other policy servers for use with postfix 
(postgrey, policyd-spf, postfwd) ... then you'll need to add those services 
into the disable, and start lists.

Just a small preference myself, and I'm not sure how much it matters, if you 
are starting everything manually, and in succession.  The roundcube webmail 
needs the mysql database, so it should technically be started before apache2.

I doubt anyone is going to login to webmail and do something in the seconds 
between you running the commands to start them, so it doesn't really matter.
