Good point, Viktor. "sendmail" didn't register in my head when I first
read that.
Motty,
It is NOT postfix calling sendmail as it is called before either postfix
instance start script is called.
Search your logs for other errors like that. I bet you'll find a few.
My theory is that something else is calling sendmail. If you installed
both instances from ports you installed postfix-sendmail twice. I
imagine that what's happening is that you installed Postfix2 second and
gave it an alternate install directory from standard Postfix. This
would have overridden /etc/mail/mailer.conf with the alternate locations.
Check /etc/mail/mailer.conf to ensure it looks like this:
#
# Execute the Postfix sendmail program, named /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
#
sendmail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
send-mail /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
mailq /usr/local/sbin/sendmail
newaliases /usr/local/sbin/sendmail

I can't think of any shell script that invokes that setting; below the

As you can see the scripts is the only problem, I'm afriad to put in
production and other issue may came up later.
Thanks for your help!
Motty

It seems unlikely that the Postfix start-up script would explicity try to
send email via a secondary Postfix instance. Perhaps some other init script
or shell script it invokes has "export MAIL_CONFIG=/etc/postfix-out".
The sendmail(1) command is used to submit messages into the local maildrop
queue, generally the Postfix start script does not do that.
