You know, that there are both a:

Port:   postfix-current-sasl-3.4.20181202,5
Path:   /usr/ports/mail/postfix-current-sasl
Info:   Experimental Postfix version

and

Port:   postfix-sasl-3.3.2_1,1
Path:   /usr/ports/mail/postfix-sasl
Info:   Postfix with Cyrus SASL support

Why not just use one of them?
