Hi Bryan,

there was an issue with the port on the quarterly branch, and quarterly is also 
the default for pkg (see pkg -vv)

Looking at pkg.freebsd.org it seems postfix is missing but postfix211 and 
postfix-current are available.
Even the port is already fixed in quarterly, the build is already finished or 
running at the moment, so the port will be missing until the next run.

It should be no problem to install now postfix-current, and in a few days after 
the next build was running swap to postfix (simply run a pkg delete 
postfix-current and pkg install postfix, I'm doing this often to test new 
current versions)
