I always try to work with the package management system to keep things
sane and manageable if possible. postfix-2.7 and 2.8 rpms and srpms are
available for centos from several sources. It's pretty easy to replace
the ancient postfix package with a fairly up to date one, and it's one
of the first things I'd do after a centos or rhel install.
I see that rhel 6 comes with postfix-2.6.6 which is better, but still a
bit conservative. Not all of the rhel/centos packages are out of date,
but they do seem quite sluggish about making any MTA changes.
FWIW debian/ubuntu seem to be much more current on the versions of
postfix they ship, but even then it's not a bad idea to install a more
recent package than what they ship with.

guys, we at the bsd balcony find it funny to see linuxers fighting each
other with "my distro is better" and "I can compile faster than you",
and more funnily "I was born to destroy bill gates empire".
I'm at a loss as to where you think you're seeing a fight. I merely
mentioned options for upgrading postix packages on various linux
distros. I've used all the above mentioned distros and more. I have not
indicated a preference for one over the other, I consider them all useful.
