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.

From changelog.CSW:

  * Adopted and updated to 2.7.1. (Closes 0003580, 0003700, 0003970)
  * Moved spool directory to /var/opt/csw/spool/postfix. (Closes 0003946)
  * Added Cyrus SASL support. (Closes 0002843)
  * Added hash table support via bdb. (Closes 0002097)
  * Init / SMF handling now done with cswclassutils. (Closes 0003946)
  * Now depends on pcre_rt instead of pcre. (Closes 0003017)
  * Binaries in /opt/csw/libexec/postfix are now stripped. (Closes 0003063)
  * Doesn't automatically substitute system sendmail binaries any more.
    Please refer to README.CSW instead. (Closes 0001943, 0002964, 0003060)
