Addtionally, I have the following line in > /etc/make.conf > > NO_SENDMAIL= true That's ok : the 'make replace' of the postfix port replace /usr/sbin/sendmail (see the /usr/port/mail/postfix/Makefile) but, now in CURRENT, /usr/sbin/sendmail is a symlink to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper (see man mailwrapper). In CURRENT, the command 'sendmail' runs the mailwrapper program which, in turn, runs the correct ones according to /etc/mail/mailer.conf (there's an exemple in 'man mailer.conf'). So, to take advantage of MTA wrapping, don't do a 'make replace' when installing Postfix but rather edit /etc/mail/mailer.conf.
