I have re-read some of the documentation (sample-smtpd.cf, that is) and I
found another important hint (for me and hence probably for you :-).

Giving a "dbm:/etc/postfix/access" has different results depending on the
place where you specify it (smtpd_client_restrictions or
smtpd_recipient_restrictions, I recommended the last one).
Hence, what I really wanted to say is:
        check_client_access dbm:/etc/postfix/access
Ralf Hildebrandts comment about using the "postmap dbm:/etc/sender/access"
still applies. For these access lists you cannot use plain files but must
convert them to a database first.

With regard to regexp support your OS not seems to support it. Bad luck.

Best regards,
