No, qmail is very good at working with any kind of system, even older
ones - it doesn't rely on new features - so I don't see why it wouldn't
work with 4.5.

But you might want to upgrade to RELENG_4_8 anyway, just to make sure
the rest of your system is up to date with the latest FreeBSD bugfixes.
