Running openbsd 3.8, postfix 2.2.9.

On this forum it discusses how to black list domains etc using postfix. I have created the black list file and entered the address to block (below), changed main.cf to use this file (below), and restarted postfix.

The address I am blocking for testing purposes is my hotmail account. It still comes through. Can someone tell me what is my mistake.

main.cf:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination, check_client_access regexp:/etc/postfix/black_listed, reject_non_fqdn_recipient

blacklist file:
/account\name.name.net$/

Have your tried adding user to sender_access file?

Postfix blacklist or reject an email address

By user do you mean the user id of the account? If yes, I changed my account id to the word account.

I also see that the example uses user@example.com. I have also tried this route with no luck.
