Hi!

I have ported cyrus imap mail server, using the old port as a base. In
this port, the binaries are put in an own directory, ${PREFIX}/cyrus/bin
. 

According to the porting handbook, only news servers and such should
have their own directory. Is this such a package?

Here's the part in the docs:
http://www.se.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook280.html#porting

> See man hier(7) for details, the rule governing /usr pretty
> much applies to /usr/local too. The exception are ports dealing with 
> USENET `news'. They may use ${PREFIX}/news as a destination
> for their files.

Anyway, it's probably bad to move it from one port to another, right?

Regards,
Palle
