I like it! No need for a separate outbox with postfix being the outbox
itself. That's the fire-and-forget workflow I'm looking for.

I looked a bit around and also found instructions for GMail [1]. What
irks me though is that it requires putting a plain-text password into
/etc/postfix/sasl/sasl_passwd. Ideally I'd use my OSX keychain and put
in the password on demand via 'security find-generic-password'. How do
you handle SMTP server authentication?
