About the variants:

• system_mail: Why should we give users the option to use the system's postfix? This seems to go against our policy of not using system libraries (see the FAQ). Or does the system postfix have features the MacPorts postfix doesn't have? Then again this variant is just changing one configure argument (isn't changing any dependencies). I guess I don't understand how this configure argument works. If the variant is to be kept, we still have the issue that if you select the system_mail variant, you're no longer using the mmgroup variable, but you're still creating the mmgroup and mmuser.
• python26: Is there any reason why the port should not simply switch to using python26 always?
