Yes, But I choose "sendmail" as that is my MTA.

Understood, but I use a .if ${.CURDIR} == "/usr/ports/mail/mailman" to
limit the variables' scope. I find the syntax in pkgtools.conf confusing.
I did get it to work but I'll confess that I'm not sure exactly what
magic did the trick.
One of the issues that I discovered was that
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailman.sh start doesn't appear to actually start
the qrunners and that mailmanctl start does. Oh... I see, they've added
a "mailman_enable" to rc.conf.. Boy, do I feel stupid. Don't know if the
directory permissions problem was related or not. I guess I'll find out
on the next portupgrade ;)
