postfix, group mail, maildrop, postfixTo use postfix instead of sendmail: - clear sendmail queue and stop the sendmail daemons Run the following commands to enable postfix during startup: - sysrc postfix_enable="YES" - sysrc sendmail_enable="NONE" If postfix is *not* already activated in /usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf - mv /usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf /usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf.old - install -d /usr/local/etc/mail - install -m 0644 /usr/local/share/postfix/mailer.conf.postfix /usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf Disable sendmail(8) specific tasks, add the following lines to /etc/periodic.conf(.local): daily_clean_hoststat_enable="NO" daily_status_mail_rejects_enable="NO" daily_status_include_submit_mailq="NO" daily_submit_queuerun="NO" If you are using SASL, you need to make sure that postfix has access to read the sasldb file. This is accomplished by adding postfix to group mail and making the /usr/local/etc/sasldb* file(s) readable by group mail (this should be the default for new installs).
If you are upgrading from prior postfix version, please see the README files for recommended changes to your configuration and additional http://www.postfix.org/COMPATIBILITY_README.html Incompatible change with snapshot 20200920 ========================================== Internal protocols have changed. You need to "postfix stop" before updating, or before backing out to an earlier release, otherwise long-running daemons (pickup, qmgr, verify, tlsproxy, postscreen) may fail to communicate with the rest of Postfix (warnings, timeouts). The purpose of this change is to produce better error messages, for example, when someone configures the discard daemon as a bounce service in master.cf, or vice versa. This change will break third-party code that implements a Postfix-internal protocol such as qpsmtpd. Programs that depend on Postfix internal details are not supported.
If you remove postfix permanent, adjust / remove the the following file: - /usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf

Back out the db3 port update because some of these dependent ports had been broken by the incompatibility between db3.2 and db3.3. I am unconditionally bumping the PORTREVISION's to eliminate possible troubles that should not happen before the coming release. Sorry for inconvenience.
