Hello guys,

Recently i was reading about new OpenBSD security mechanism called pledge(). I 
think this is another great idea from OpenBSD. Are you going to make use of it ?

Pledge is already used within the OpenBSD tree[1], so yes.
On other platforms I can't tell you, since I'm not a developer on either smtpd or the other platforms, although I reckon it's highly unlikely, since it's an in kernel implementation. But as Theo stated[2]: someone smart might be able to build a compatible layer upon seccomp. Just don't hold your breath.
