I've got the db_dump, but it does not show me what is actually in the file.

In my /usr/bin is a program called db_dump (which was installed as part of
RedHat's glibc-2.1.3.2 package)

Here is a script I use to prompt me for the correct syntax when I forget it:

#!/bin/bash
if [ "$1" = "" ]
then
         echo usage: db-dump /full/path/to/db
         exit 0
fi
/usr/bin/db_dump -p $1

This is a RedHat 6.1 box -- YMMV on other OS's

Creation syntax:
In relation to postfix, I just use the postmap or postalias command,
whichever is appropriate to the format of the file. I actually have a
script that runs all the remaps each time I do an update:

#!/bin/bash
cd /etc/postfix
/usr/sbin/postalias aliases
/usr/sbin/postalias listar-program
/usr/sbin/postalias listar
/usr/sbin/postmap virtusertable
/usr/sbin/postmap access
