The default hostname matching policy in the "verify" level is
vulnerable to MiTM attacks that modify the MX records of the
nexthop domain.  This is addressed in the "secure" level.

    http://www.postfix.org/TLS_README.html#client_tls_secure

the two levels are otherwise identical, if you explicitly configure
"match=" in the policy table, or smtp_tls_{verify,secure}_cert_match
then it does not matter which level you choose.  What matters is
whether or not you elect to trust hostnames obtained from insecure
MX lookups.
