Ok, here's the first pass... Using the script from the Wiki How-To page... I previously had MySql/PHP/Apache2/Postscript/Dovecote and I think Fetchmail installed. I had done a "port selfupdate" last week. The Mysql5, Postscript and fetchmail installs/updates apparently went without problem. It did not find "postfixadmin" It apparently did not like the fact that I had Dovecote installed. I'll wait and run it again when you can trackdown postfixadmin. Deactivating dovecote is easy enough. The only interesting thing I noticed -- the second request for a password. I assume that it was simply sudo timing out -- as the mysql5, especially, and postscript installs did take a while. I wasn't timing them, so I don't know how long they actually took. Here's the output. -----------------------------------------------<cut here>--------------------------- ./download-postfix.sh Password: ---> Computing dependencies for mysql5 ---> Fetching mysql5 ---> Attempting to fetch mysql-5.1.57.tar.gz from http://ykf.ca.distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/mpdistfiles/mysql5 ---> Verifying checksum(s) for mysql5 ---> Extracting mysql5 ---> Applying patches to mysql5 ---> Configuring mysql5 ---> Building mysql5 ---> Staging mysql5 into destroot ---> Computing dependencies for mysql5 ---> Installing mysql5 @5.1.57_0 ---> Deactivating mysql5 @5.1.53_0 ---> Activating mysql5 @5.1.57_0 ---> Cleaning mysql5 ---> Computing dependencies for postfix ---> Fetching postfix ---> Attempting to fetch postfix-2.8.3.tar.gz from http://ykf.ca.distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/mpdistfiles/postfix ---> Verifying checksum(s) for postfix ---> Extracting postfix ---> Applying patches to postfix ---> Configuring postfix ---> Building postfix ---> Staging postfix into destroot ---> Creating launchd control script ########################################################### # A startup item has been generated that will aid in # starting postfix with launchd.
