okay, i do have the files as you described above:
orange:/etc/postfix> ls *.dpkg-dist
access.dpkg-dist regexp_table.dpkg-dist virtual.dpkg-dist
canonical.dpkg-dist relocated.dpkg-dist
pcre_table.dpkg-dist transport.dpkg-dist
these contain nothing but comment lines, every single one of them.
i'm confused about the old vesions -- are those the ones in
/etc/postfix/db?:
orange:/etc/postfix/db> ls
access.hash canonical.recipient.hash.db relocated.hash
access.hash.db canonical.sender.hash relocated.hash.db
aliases.hash canonical.sender.hash.db transport.hash
aliases.hash.db headerchecks.regexp transport.hash.db
bodychecks.regexp mydestination.hash virtual.hash
canonical.hash mydestination.hash.db virtual.hash.db
canonical.hash.db relays.hash
canonical.recipient.hash relays.hash.db
the .hash files are all empty.
afaict, the files like /etc/postfix/access.dpkg-dist and
/etc/postfix/db/access.hash.db have nothing in common.
thanks again for your help!
