Re: postfix postmap, when to use

The postmap command is what creates the databases from the source files that you create for the maps. Regular expressions are normally used in the source files as a syntax for the entries. I suggest asking postfix questions on the postfix lists... ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I believe you are correct, certainly pcre possibly regexp do not
require postmap to be run. Postfix has the tools to help you work this
out for yourself:

Use postconf -m to find out what databases your system supports.

postfix postmap, when to use
Hello, I've got a confusion issue, regarding postfix's postmap and when to use it. I've read some documentation that suggests you don't need to run it when making regexp or pcre map types such as in header_checks, yet the header_checks file supplied with postfix 2.1 suggests to run it. In addition hash and other types i'm similar confused. Has this changed from 2.0 to 2.1? Thanks.
