The port will get the software installed for you. Beyond that, it is up to you to read the documentation to configure and implement it. See <http://www.sogo.nu/downloads/documentation.html>, specifically chapter 5 in the Installation and Configuration Guide.

I suppose the port could install a /usr/local/etc/sogo.conf.sample file, but configuration of SOGo is so specific and unique to each and every environment that I believe it would likely cause more confusion than it would avoid.
