Postfix uses database files for access control
Postfix uses database files for access control, address rewriting and other purposes.
Here is a common example of how Postfix invokes a database:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
Whenever you make a change to the main.cf or master.cf file, execute the following command as root in order to refresh a running mail system:
# postfix reload
