Expiration Date EXPIRATION DATE: 2012-06-22
A secure alternative to widely-used Sendmail
Maintained by: sahil@FreeBSD.org search for ports maintained by this maintainer
Port Added: 21 Sep 2009 11:45:27
Also Listed In: ipv6
License: not specified in port


Postfix attempts to be fast, easy to administer, and secure, while at the same
time being sendmail compatible enough to not upset existing users. Thus, the
outside has a sendmail-ish flavor, but the inside is completely different.

Some feautures:

Connection cache for SMTP, DSN status notifications, IP version 6, Plug-in
support for multiple SASL implementations (Cyrus, Dovecot), TLS encryption and
authentication, Configurable status notification message text, Access control
per client/sender/recipient/etc, Content filter (built-in, external before
queue, external after queue), Berkeley DB database, LDAP database, MySQL
database, PostgreSQL database, Maildir and mailbox format, Virtual domains,
VERP envelope return addresses and others.

Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2010-11-27
    Affects: users of mail/postfix, mail/postfix2[56]
    Author: sahil@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      As of Postfix 2.7.2, 2.6.8, 2.5.11:
    
      Postfix no longer automatically appends the system default CA
      (certificate authority) certificates, when it reads the CA
      certificates specified with {smtp, lmtp, smtpd}_tls_CAfile or
      with {smtp, lmtp, smtpd}_tls_CApath.  This prevents third-party
      certificates from getting mail relay permission with the
      permit_tls_all_clientcerts feature.  Unfortunately, this change
      may cause compatibility problems with configurations that rely
      on certificate verification for other purposes.  To get the old
      behavior, specify "tls_append_default_CA = yes".

Modify pkg-install to handle situations in which
/etc/mail/mailer.conf does not exist, e.g. when
FreeBSD is built WITHOUT_MAILWRAPPER.

This commit only affects legacy Postfix releases,
as the latest stable and development ports already
perform this check.

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

Remove painful examples of foo="", with particular prejudice against
constructions that parse out to [ -z "$foo" ] && foo=""

These are bad examples that get copied and pasted into new code, so the
hope is that with less bad examples there will be less need for me to
bring this up in review.

In a few of these files all that were changed were comments so that next
time I search for these patterns I won't trip on the file for no reason.

In a few places, add $FreeBSD$

No functional changes, so no PORTREVISION bumps
