Lack of Port option - milter-greylist

Hi,

I wonder what workaround there might exist for lacking port option. E.g. mail/milter-greylist lacks the option "--enable-spamassassin". Is there any feature how I can still pass this configure parameter over even though the option is not explicitly defined in the makefile? Something like this pseudo code:

Code: 
env OPTIONAL_CONF="--enable-spamassassin --other" make install clean
Thanks
 
add a Makefile.local file in the port directory.
In that file, try adding something like:
Code: 
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-spamassassin

I didn't test that but it should work.
 
Awesome. This did the job. Thank you very much.
Open question for now is: will this file Makefile.local be deleted when updating port tree? I assume yes?
 
Wouldn't this also do the job? This could be placed in /etc/make.conf and therefore would not be removed due to a update to the ports tree.

Code: 
.if${.CURDIR:M*/mail/milter-greylist}
CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-spamassassin
.endif
