Hmm, that is not nice. It should leave those files such as my aliases

I have no idea what it is doing, but it is NOT done by the postfix port
itself. Note that I updated postfix using the port last week:
# ls -lrt /opt/local/etc/postfix/aliases*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7419 Jun 26 2012
/opt/local/etc/postfix/aliases
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 16384 Oct 6 2018
/opt/local/etc/postfix/aliases.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 10519 Mar 18 23:11
/opt/local/etc/postfix/aliases.sample
Is this something that is fixable in the port or is this something
inherent in the way MacPorts work when installing?
It is not done by the postfix port or by MacPorts inherently.
(Same happened with dovecot. I have been using the mail-server port as
an umbrella, so it might have been that one)
That seems most likely. I also updated the dovecot port last week and it
did not touch any config files. I've never had a need for the
'mail-server' meta-port, so I don't use it.
