>Description:
The postfix_default_mta variable that is used in postfix' pkg-install script is not available when specified in make.conf. This means it will not automatically write /etc/mail/mailer.conf when installed in BATCH mode. Specifying this on the command line will install the correct mailer.conf.
>How-To-Repeat:
make sure you have a default /etc/mail/mailer.conf file. Add the following to /etc/make.conf and install postfix. This should not change the /etc/mail/mailer.conf. 

.if ${.CURDIR:M*/mail/postfix*}
POSTFIX_DEFAULT_MTA=yes
BATCH=true
.endif

set both environment variables in your shell and reinstall postfix; /etc/mail/mailer.conf has been altered pointing to the postfix binaries.


>Fix:
Add the POSTFIX_DEFAULT_MTA variable to the Makefile's SCRIPT_ENV variable.
