I have compiled it with the desired locations for all the parameters
mentioned in my email. Then with make install it prompted me for the
locations again and i have answered them changing the default ones.
Then it copied/updated all the required files to the specified
locations ,but later it is still looking for /etc/postfix.
My compile script.

Hi
I was installing Postfix postfix-2.5.5 on Solaris. At the time of
compiling the Source with make I have defined the parameters (for changing
the default values of the following from /etc/ to /opt etc.)
-DDEF_COMMAND_DIR=
-DDEF_SAMPLE_DIR=
-DDEF_SENDMAIL_PATH=
-DDEF_CONFIG_DIR=
-DDEF_DAEMON_DIR=
-DDEF_DATA_DIR=
-DDEF_QUEUE_DIR
-DDEF_MAILQ_PATH=
-DDEF_MANPAGE_DIR=
-DDEF_NEWALIAS_PATH=
When I run make install, it asked a load of questions again about where I
want the stuff located. One of the things it asks about is config files,
which defaults to /etc/postfix and I change it to /opt/postfix/etc
Sorry, you must compile-in the desired location of the default
configuration directory. This cannot be set via main.cf, catch-22.
