I took the plunge with the postfix RPM I linked to above. It works
very decently, I needed 2.2.x for the new "query" syntax in the
virtual lookup tables. The above RPM also had the VDA patches built in
so it's quite a nice bundle.

There were some problems with the upgrade, but that was minor postfix
configuration issues.
