2.5.1 is there.

Here's what I've got:

ares-root# ls -ld /usr/ports/mail/postfix*
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel  512 Aug 14 10:56 /usr/ports/mail/postfix
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel  512 Aug 14 10:56 /usr/ports/mail/postfix-current

[...]

I'm pretty sure that portsnap extracted properly (it seemed to -- and it installed a newer version of mysql, which is what I was looking for), so no idea why 2.5.1 isn't showing up in my tree.

You're looking at the incorrect port.

/usr/ports/mail/postfix should be the 2.5.1 version. Check out the contents of /usr/ports/mail/postfix/distinfo.

Yes, I think I'm starting to get the FreeBSD ports figured out (slow on the uptake, what can I say). But when I try to install from /usr/ports/mail/postfix, I get:

===>  Installing for postfix-2.5.1_2,1

===>  postfix-2.5.1_2,1 conflicts with installed package(s):
      postfix-2.4.7,1

      They install files into the same place.
      Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

That's the thing that's concerning me ... should I pkg_delete 2.4.7? Or is this not the right way to upgrade an existing installation?

I appreciate the assistance with this. Postfix is the single most important piece of software on that server, and I'd rather not b0rk it.... :-)
