If you're interested in keeping your smtp jails as frugal as possible, I strongly recommend setting up a package build server and installing from your own pkg repo. As perl is only a BUILD_DEPENDS[*] it shouldn't trouble you in this scenario. Plus installing from binary packages involves much less downtime and risk to your frontline services. The perl requirement in postfix appears to be about building man pages -- it's from upstream, rather than something arbitrarily added in the port Makefile. In fact, all that the port Makefile does is modify the postfix build infrastructure so it can find perl in the usual location it gets installed on FreeBSD.
