--- Comment #2 from Uffe Jakobsen <uffe at uffe.org> ---
Thanks for the suggestion

But that does not really seem to be the problem here...
Stopping and starting nullmailer does not fix the problem after upgrade

The actual problem - as I see it - is that the fifo file
/var/spool/nullmailer/trigger does not exist after an upgrade from
nullmailer-1.13 to nullmailer-2.2

Where uninstalling nullmailer-1.13 and installing nullmailer-2.2 works

So there seems to be a difference in what "pkg upgrade" does in respect to what
"pkg delete" followed by "pkg install" does...

In a bigger perspective - without understanding the depth or reason for this
problem - it seems to me that the difference is quite unfortunate - as it will
make a porters testing efforts even more difficult...
