Yes you can. Go to /usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-Sender and make install from there.

First thing to do is decide how you want to update your stuff --- Anonymous CVS, cvsup or CTM. I prefer cvsup myself, so I'll give you the method I use with cvsup. The FreeBSD Handbook should be your main point of reference though.
You'll need to install cvsup first if you don't already have it installed. I prefer to install it via pkg_add -r or /stand/sysinstall instead of ports simply because cvsup was written using modula3 and if you compile from ports, it downloads and compiles a modula3 compiler before it builds cvsup. However, if you're prepared to wait, go ahead and use the ports (/usr/ports/net/cvsup or /usr/ports/net/cvsup-without-gui). Once you have it installed, you have to make a config file for updating ports and source files. Sample cvsup config files are installed in /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ and you can use these to make your own. These are my config files (which I keep in /usr/local/etc/cvsup) Code:
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/cvsupsrc ====================== *default host=cvsup11.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs *default tag=RELENG_4_9 *default delete use-rel-suffix src-all /usr/local/etc/cvsup/cvsupports ======================== *default host=cvsup11.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix ports-all You probably want to alter the host= lines to a cvsup server that is closer to your area. See section A.5.7 in the cvsup section of the handbook for a list of cvsup servers. You might also want to change the tag= line in cvsupsrc to match the version of FreeBSD that you want to track (I'm tracking 4.9 RELEASE here). After this, you need to run cvsup to update your files. To update ports files: cvsup -g -L 2 /usr/local/etc/cvsup/cvsupports Run the command to update your ports files and take a break because it might take a while to update all the files. If you intend to update/upgrade your system, run the command again with cvsupsrc as the config file name. Hope this helps ![]() |
