Sorry, when i insist too much - but why don't you just use the postfix
package from OpenPKG ? Provided, you're still speaking about postfix.
Maybe it is a nice opportunity to speak about the already mentioned
openpkg-export package 
(http://www.mail-archive.com/openpkg-users%40openpkg.org/msg00671.html) ?
Hmmm, together with openpkg-export another thing comes into my mind:
http://www.mail-archive.com/openpkg-dev%40openpkg.org/msg10994.html
(with opkg-r i meaned l_rusr).
