If installed from ports, Postfix installs a /user/local/sbin/sendmail which
does not interfere with the mailwrapper setup.  The port also fixes
/etc/mail/mailer.conf to point to the postfix binary instead of the sendmail
binary.  The only thing you need to watch is mergemaster putting the default
mailer settings back.
