postfix 2.8.5 is available as a backport for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I've
suggested upgrading to that, since it should be rather painless.
Persuading the decision makers to upgrade the OS will be somewhat more
difficult.

Thanks for the suggestion. We prefer to stick with packaged and
supported software where possible, though, as is probably the case in
many corporate settings. Not my decision to make. But I do very much
appreciate your suggestions, don't get me wrong. :)
