A client uses hash files for transport and access on a couple relays. When I

postfix on it -- which I'm working on the upgrade plan for).
Can someone confirm that we only need to postmap something and not restart the
entire subsystem? At least, that's been my understanding for years anyway.

All versions of postfix (at least since 1.0 anyway, and
probably before that) will automatically recognize changes to
hash: type files.
Other file types may require a "postfix reload" or may be
picked up "eventually". See the docs for that specific file type.
