Because this isn't a FreeBSD patch. VDA is an extension to postfix, written as a patch, by somebody from Brasil, who put it on the web there and it is intended by the port to fetch it from there. It is only requested from FreeBSD if the initial fetch fails or when this site isn't added to the PATCH_SITES variable. It is added to the PATCH_SITES variable in: /usr/ports/mail/postfix/scripts/configure.postfix around line 227. That file is the dialog script, which is why I was asking if you used -DBATCH. > The ports collection is the most compelling factor that made me switch from > linux to FreeBSD.

Sorry -- I assumed you knew more about it. Did you get a dialog at all? If so, can you do the following and provide the output: cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix make clean patch make -V PATCH_SITES -- Melvyn Sopacua freebsd.ports@melvyn.homeunix.org FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE Qt: 3.3.5 KDE: 3.4.3
