Hi!
Well as i understand it (probably i mistaken) - the thing is that
Postfix changes original /usr/sbin/sendmail on /usr/local/bin/sendmail.
If you do 'ls -la /usr/sbin/sendmail' you can see that it links
/usr/sbin/sendmail -> /usr/sbin/mailwrapper.
mailwrapper than reads /etc/mail/mailer.conf than have been changed by
postfix installation and reads:

#
# Execute the Postfix sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
#
sendmail        /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
send-mail       /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
mailq           /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
newaliases      /usr/local/sbin/sendmail

So i guess that's why you cannot find anything in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
regarding postfix because it simply used as 'sendmail-replacer'.

Am i wrong? :)
