Assuming you're talking about Postfix, if Postfix is logging incoming
mail then Postfix incoming mail is handled by Postfix. If Postfix
is not logging outbound mail, then outbound mail is not handled by
Postfix.
The Postfix queue has no concept of outgoing vs. incoming mail.
All mail comes into the queue and then it leaves. Therefore, apart
from open-relay controls in smtpd(8), there is little distinction
between inbound and outbound mail in Postfix. In particular both
are logged via the same mechanisms at the same syslog facility and
priority.
Since you've said nothing about where outbound mail originates,
how it is injected into the mail system or where it is going, nor
about the configuration of your system, very little further can be
said.
