See:

All major differences are described there.  Generally you should
be able to take an older set of configuration files, run 

        # postfix upgrade-configuration

and have a working system that behaves in a backwards-compatible
way.  Some Debian systems ship with a postfix-files file that does
not match what the package delivers.  On those systems you may
need to edit /usr/libexec/postfix/postfix-files to remove any
lines pertaining to files that are not delivered with the package.
