Now that you mention the documentation:
SYNOPSIS
postmap -q "string" cidr:/etc/postfix/filename
postmap -q - cidr:/etc/postfix/filename<inputfile
DESCRIPTION
...
To test lookup tables, use the "postmap -q" command as
described in the SYNOPSIS above.
It takes some perseverance to find that text.
That is another point that has me confused.
I have been testing to make certain changes I have made to the access file
were really there with postmap -q.
With the movement of IP addresses and CIDR blocks out of the access
file and into a "cidr-ip" file postmap -q would find them in the
cidr-ip.db file.
If I remove the .db ile (As Noel points out not necessary) then I get
an error because postmap seems to only look in database files:
$ postmap -q 222.254.228.0/24 cidr-ip
postmap: fatal: open database cidr-ip.db: No such file or directory
As I originally posted: "An strace of "postmap -q<any-pattern>
cidr-ip" shows it is the cidr-ip.db file that is being read." by
postmap.
The key for a cidr map must be an IP address, not a literal
cidr range.
postmap -q 222.254.225.5 cidr:cidr-ip
