The "why" is in /etc/network/if-up.d/ and /etc/network/if-down.d/

As the names suggest, anything in these directories is executed after a 
network interface is brought up, and immediately before it goes down.  I'd 
hazard a guess you have a postix script and another script ("000resolvconf" 
by the look of it) that modifies /etc/resolv.conf.

The "how to solve" problem depends entirely on why they're failing.  Is 
postfix configured properly?  What is 000resolvconf trying to do?  If you 
don't need these scripts, then move them out of /etc/network/if-up.d 
and /etc/network/if-down.d

HTH,

James
