It is "automatic" for daemon kicked from inetd(8).  But it isn't true
for Postfix as far as I know since Postfix dosen't use inetd(8) but
use its own mechanism, master(8).  You need to modify Postfix itself
to support tcp_wrappers first.

If Postfix has support for tcp_wrappers, it would be far easy to
support Postfix using libwrap on NetBSD.

So, I wrote "you had better ask Postfix people to support tcp_wrappers."

Cheers.
