This cannot be your active main.cf file, since Postfix enforces a
non-empty setting for myhostname.
... bash used below for sub-process file handles <( ... ) ...
$ touch /tmp/master.cf
$ echo "myhostname =" > /tmp/main.cf
$ postconf -c /tmp -n
config_directory = /tmp
myhostname =
$ postmap -c /tmp -q "foo" pcre:<(echo '/foo/ bar')
postmap: fatal: bad string length 0 < 1: myhostname =
$ echo "myhostname = bogus" > /tmp/main.cf
$ postmap -c /tmp -q "foo" pcre:<(echo '/foo/ bar')
bar
Similar fatal errors would break pretty much everything other than
postconf(1).
