Question?

[James R. Stevens]

I just reload the access map into memory after any changes without
stopping the queues.

CLI->mapmap hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access

MS doesn't since it doesn't directly interact with Sendmail, it just
uses the queues. You have to restart Sendmail but the Linux start script
can take care of that.

Your example with the access file doesn't need a restart though, just
make it to access.db and it will be used right away like the other db
files.
