I suggest that you use the documented pipe-to-command interface.
You can pipe-to-command with ~/.forward (see "man 5 aliases")
and with the pipe(8) delivery agent (see "man 8 pipe").

Postfix only runs the programs that you need.  If you never send
(or receive) mail via SMTP, then the SMTP client (or server) program
will never run.
