New description:

 I did this:

 {{{
 sudo port install mail-server
 }}}

 and got this:

 {{{
 Error: Failed to configure mail-server: postfix must be installed with
 +dovecot_sasl+pcre+smtputf8+tls.
 }}}

 then I did this:

 {{{
 sudo port clean mail-server
 sudo port install mail-server
 }}}

 and got the same error message. Is that a hard error or should I ignore
 it?

 The environment is clean and is:

 {{{
 :debug:sysinfo macOS 15.4 (darwin/24.4.0) arch arm
 :debug:sysinfo MacPorts 2.10.5
 :debug:sysinfo Xcode 16.3, CLT 16.3.0.0.1.1742442376
 :debug:sysinfo SDK 15
 }}}

Comment:

 Presumably you should run:
 {{{
 sudo port install postfix +dovecot_sasl+pcre+smtputf8+tls
 }}}
