REQUIREMENTS
1. Remove Sendmail. Postfix and Sendmail can NOT coexist.
2. Group "postdrop" MUST exist and MUST be empty.
PRE-INSTALL
pkgrm sendmail
groupadd postdrop
NOTICE: If upgrading from 1.x.x / 2.0 / 2.1 series: STOP postfix
before update.
AFTER upgrading from an older release DO NOT copy the old
master.cf/main.cf files over the new files. Instead, you MUST
let the Postfix installation procedure update the existing
configuration files with new service entries.
Please consult postfix release notes on Postfix website for
further update details.

The packager of this port (Victor) also supplied an example
configuration and some notes. I've separated them from this port. You
