FreeBSD support about postfix_exporter

[sgohl]

just confirming it works on FreeBSD with the binary copied from another FreeBSD system where I installed pkg install go and run go install github.com/kumina/postfix_exporter@latest so the actual target system does not need to have go installed.

./postfix_exporter --postfix.logfile_path="/var/log/maillog"

I've stolen the rc-script for /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postfix_exporter from node_exporter:

#!/bin/sh

# PROVIDE: postfix_exporter
# REQUIRE: LOGIN
# KEYWORD: shutdown
#
# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf.local or /etc/rc.conf
# to enable this service:
#
# postfix_exporter_enable (bool):          Set to NO by default.
#               Set it to YES to enable postfix_exporter.
# postfix_exporter_user (string):          Set user that postfix_exporter will run under
#               Default is "nobody".
# postfix_exporter_group (string):         Set group that postfix_exporter will run under
#               Default is "nobody".
# postfix_exporter_args (string):          Set extra arguments to pass to postfix_exporter
#               Default is "".
# postfix_exporter_listen_address (string):Set ip:port that postfix_exporter will listen on
#               Default is ":9154".
# postfix_exporter_textfile_dir (string):  Set directory that postfix_exporter will watch
#               Default is "/var/tmp/postfix_exporter".

Yes, as far as I can tell it compiles and runs fine on FreeBSD. A Port is missing so far, but a simple go get github.com/kumina/postfix_exporter should get you started.
