Sorry for not being more specific.

After port upgrade
portupgrade -rR squirrealmail

I have to
chown -R wbserv:wbserv /var/spool/sqirrelmail

Or after upgrade of postfixadmin:
  portupfrade -rR postfixadmin
I have to change perms again:
  chown -R wbserv:wbserv /usr/local/www/postfixadmin

What is the best aprroach? To specify correct file ownership at 
make.conf? How can I do that?
