Are you using the right startup method?

/usr/ports/UPDATING:

 20060112:
  AFFECTS: users of mail/postfix, mail/postfix1, mail/postfix21,
                    mail/postfix-current
  AUTHOR: mnag at FreeBSD.org

  Now all postfix ports use rcNG script to startup. If you have any file
  in etc/rc.d directory linked to sbin/postfix, please remove.
  Do not forget to add 'postfix_enable="YES"' in your rc.conf
