OK - this worked!! thanks Wietse!

        postmap -q "Mail.ParaResearch.com" regexp:/etc/postfix/access

        Echos OK and returns a zero exit status

BUT!!! I have

        smtpd_sender_restrictions and smtpd_recipient_restrictions both with

                check_sender_access regexp:/etc/postfix/access,

        and BEFORE any rbl lists, like list.dsbl.org and its still rejecting mail
from this host.

My assumption was the first match wins with smtpd_*_restrictions - am I
wrong?

I trying to cut this host a break. They got listed and are in the process
of fixing but I need to get their mail throught - I guess I attempting to
white_list this site. Right or wrong approach?

Andy

That looks like a regular expression.

To use regular expressions, use:

    postmap -q "Mail.ParaResearch.com" regexp:/etc/postfix/access

or use pcre if your postfix supports it (use "postconf -m" to find out).
