Even the port is already fixed in quarterly, the build is already finished or running at the moment, so the port will be missing until the next run. It should be no problem to install now postfix-current, and in a few days after the next build was running swap to postfix (simply run a pkg delete postfix-current and pkg install postfix, I'm doing this often to test new current versions) -- olli
