Read the Postfix release notes. These will highlight any potential
compatibility issues and major changes.
When upgrading from a release this old, yes you do need to stop Postfix
first.

Hello,
I'm stuck with a problem where postfix is hanging sometimes when issuing a
"postfix stop" command. In my configuration, I have two domains I'm relaying
mail for with postfix. The lists of email addresses are in these virtual
files,
defined with this line in main.cf:
virtual_alias_maps
