            Bug ID: 245042
           Summary: mail/postfix - pkg post install instructions
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New

I recently did two new fresh installs of 12.1-RELEASE and then pkg installed
postfix 3.4.9,1 on each of them.

At the end of the pkg installs the following message displays:

To 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=3D"YES"
- sysrc sendmail_enable=3D"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 -m 0644 /usr/local/share/postfix/mailer.conf.postfix
/usr/local/etc/mail/mailer.conf

No problem with the first two paragraphs but the directory /usr/local/etc/m=
ail
does not exist, either before or after the pkg install.

Should that last paragraph read:

If postfix is *not* already activated in /etc/mail/mailer.conf
- mv /etc/mail/mailer.conf /etc/mail/mailer.conf.old
- install -m 0644 /usr/local/share/postfix/mailer.conf.postfix
/etc/mail/mailer.conf
