Kinda O/T: Need help with postfix / mac

[Evan Platt <ev...@espphotography.com>]

Hello all.. running postfix 2.2.4 on Mac OS/X.. In my main.cf, I've added
check_client_access hash:/etc/postfix/rbl_access,
created a rbl_access file which consists of:
66.94.237.26    OK
.dcn.yahoo.com  OK
.scd.yahoo.com  OK
.mud.yahoo.com  OK
I then postmap hash:/rbl_access . If I then restart postfix, I get
www postfix/smtpd[3544]: fatal: open database
/etc/postfix/rbl_access.db: Inappropriate file type or format in my mail.log.

Postconf -m shows:

btree
cidr
environ
hash
mysql
pcre
proxy
regexp
static
unix

I've tried both hash and btree (obviously redoing the postmap), but 
no luck. I'd be happy to share my rbl_access.db file created if 
someone could help.

Thanks.

Evan

I tried postfix-users:

We are unable to deliver the message from <ev...@espphotography.com>
to <po...@egroups.com>.

The postfix-users group is for archival use only and does
not accept direct postings.  If you want to post to the
actual email list, please send your message to

postfix-users@egroups.com
(Yes, I joined the group). Is there a different / better postfix group?

Thanks. :-D

when you post this to the postfix ML, also send the output of postconf 
-n (this will tell whether the '.$domain' entries will work or not).

Are you sure this is /rbl_access and not /etc/postfix/rbl_access?

when posting logs, post them as they come. The above isn't a sylog line 
(I doubt postfix says "in my mail log." and the syslog I know puts other 
stuff before the "www postfix/smtpd"...).

anyway, this is a question for the postfix ML. followup there please.
