Unless you or whoever built the package changed $PREFIX:

% pkg_info -Lx postfix
Information for postfix-2.7.0,1:

Files:
/usr/local/man/man1/postalias.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man1/postcat.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man1/postconf.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man1/postdrop.1.gz
[ ... ]
/usr/local/share/doc/postfix/tlsmgr.8.html
/usr/local/share/doc/postfix/generic.5.html
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix

...every file is under /usr/local.  Perhaps you set INST_BASE option?

    [ ] INST_BASE  Install into /usr and /etc/postfix
