It is not. As I wrote earlier:

I only need to solve a networking issue. And I wrote that before as well:

Thus I am wondering whether it would be feasible to use proxy protocol outbound 
as well with postfix. Actually I am doing this with other services and I think 
it should be straightforward to add. Are you willing to consider that? Or is it 
already supported and I did overlook an option to use it?
I may have overlooked other options. However what I definitely don´t want to do 
is run a relay server on the VPS.
