Are you sure? Postfix man pages are not the easiest to read, but "man 
relocated" seems to say different:

]    The input format for the postmap(1) command is as follows:
]
]    ·      An entry has one of the following form:
]                pattern      new_location
]           Where new_location specifies contact information such as an 
]           email address, or perhaps a street address or telephone 
]           number.
]
]    · Empty lines and whitespace-only lines are ignored, as are lines
]      whose first non-whitespace character is a `#'.
]
]    · A logical line starts with non-whitespace text. A line that 
]      starts with whitespace continues a logical line.


So I understand you can use:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]       The address you have used is no longer valid, 
                         please phone me at (+34) 555 1234


Now, the message will probably contain more text, and that I guess will be 
hardcoded. However... I think I read somewhere that this messages could be 
translated, for instance, to Spanish. But I don't remember where I read 
this.
