That's not sufficient. It would have to see the new data without restarting. With DJB's CDB, I think the underlying mmaped file is reopened transparently if it changes. With tinycdb, it might not be. At the very least, that can't happen if Postfix is chrooted, or the table can only be opened by root. -- Rob
