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 features:
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.
===> The following configuration options are available for postfix-3.11.7_4,1:
BDB=off: Berkeley DB support
BLOCKLISTD=on: Enable blocklistd support
CDB=on: CDB maps lookups
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EAI=on: Email Address Internationalization (SMTPUTF8) support
INST_BASE=off: Install into /usr and /etc/postfix
LDAP=off: LDAP maps (uses WITH_OPENLDAP_VER)
LMDB=on: LMDB maps
MONGO=off: MongoDB support
MYSQL=off: MySQL database support
NIS=off: Network Information Services/YP support
PCRE2=on: Use Perl Compatible Regular Expressions, version 2
PGSQL=off: PostgreSQL database support
SASL=off: Cyrus SASL support (Dovecot SASL is always built in)
SQLITE=off: SQLite database support
TEST=off: SMTP/LMTP test server and generator
TLS=on: Secure network connection support via TLS
TLSRPT=on: Enable sending RFC 8460 TLS reports
====> LMDB version to use: you can only select none or one of them
LMDB0=on: Use LMDB 0.9 library
LMDB1=off: Use LMDB 1.0 library
====> Kerberos network authentication protocol type: you can only select none or one of them
SASLKMIT=off: If your SASL req. MIT Kerberos5, select this
SASLKRB5=off: If your SASL req. Kerberos5, select this
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Reason:
mail/postfix now can depend on either databases/lmdb0 or databases/lmdb.
The default is lmdb0 for now.
If you want/need to use lmdb1, you will need to build the package
with apropriate lmdb version selected.
Reason:
Postfix 3.6 and higher requires minimum OpenSSL 1.1.1
FreeBSD 11 users using base OpenSSL can switch to
mail/postfix35
If you wish to use postfix35 until FreeBSD 11 EoL you might run the
following command:
# pkg set -o mail/postfix:mail/postfix35
# pkg upgrade
port moved here from mail/postfix35 on 2021-09-30 REASON: Has expired: It is only here until FreeBSD 11 is EoL (Postfix >= 3.6 requires OpenSSL >= 1.1.x)

[PATCH] mail/postfix: Update to libspf2-2.1.5-5
update the SPF patch to latest release which fixes bug
exposed by gcc in FreeBSD 5.3. it is otherwise identical
to prior version, so no upgrade is necessary if you have
it compiled and workign in FreeBSD 4.10 already (thus no
version bump).
removed "extra libspf2" patch that tried to work around
failure of IPv6+TLS patch when used in conjunction with SPF
patch. It just doesn't work, and I can't figure out exactly
what it is supposed to do. As it was, this would cause
failures when selecting just the SPF patch.

Fix non-default dependency on openldap2[012] which is broken by splitting.
# I'm not bumped port revision of them because this should not affect
# packages built on bento...
Included in this email is a patch to postfix which I need applied for
my upcoming commit to sysinstall(8).

update postfix to 2.0.6
this is a security critical release -- it works around the same bug that was
recently patched in sendmail to protect any unpatched sendmail servers behind
a postfix gateway.
this fix allows one to leave postfix as the gateway machine when there are
unpatched sendmail servers, rather than having to install sendmail on your
gateway.

Use ${ECHO_CMD} instead of ${ECHO} where you mean the echo command; the ECHO
macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if make(1) is
invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to the echo command.
Update port to 20010228 pl02. pkg-plist cleanup. Update to TLS patch 0.7.2.
Update to IPv6 patch 20010228pl02-v6-20010503a. Complain if user tries to
compile with both TLS and IPv6 enabled. Complain if user tries to compile with
IPv6 on non-i386 platform (ie alpha). Change maintainer e-mail address.
