Nope, not a type.  It's smart enough to know that and adds the .db
itself.  If one is in the /etc/mail directory the paths aren't even
necessary.  'makemap hash access < access' works just fine.

The additional bits can certainly give one a bit of a reality check as
to what's actually happening although more characters also means more
potential for typos.  At least the way I type...
