 I think the idea is good, but IMO, the best way is wait this
 
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/82791
 
 when this PR is commited this solution could be made simplest way,
 adding QMAIL_PREFIX on mail/qmail/Makefile.include and setting
 PREFIX?=${QMAIL_PREFIX}.
 
 And when you implemet this, you'll need to change all ports that use
 PREFIX?=/var/qmail
