Pete's right - the alternatives command i what you want.
rpm -Uvh postfix...rpm
cp files into place
( I assume you already haev your configs set up ready to go?)
/usr/sbin/alternatives --set mta /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
/sbin/service sendmail stop
/sbin/service postfix start
/sbin/chkconfig sendmail off
/sbin/chkconfig postfix on
