Thanks for reporting. Updated packages with Postfix 2.7.1 are now available
from experimental/:

    http://mirror.opencsw.org/experimental.html#skayser

These should fix you issue. The package now doesn't alter the system
sendmail binaries on postinstall any more. README.CSW has details on how to
do this manually.
    
Could you please verify whether they work for you. Postfix was updated
from 2.4.6 to 2.7.1, with a substantial list of enhancements. If there are
any problems with the package, please let me know.
