Postfix /etc/postfix/access not working?

    Just switched to postfix and I must say, after using
    sendmail for several years, postfix is far superior.
    Now, I copied my sendmail "access" file to the
    /etc/postfix directory, and ran:

       postmap /etc/postfix/access

    I have numerous entries like this in the access file:

    219.136 ERROR: "550 WE REJECT SPAM FROM CHINA!!!"
    58.33 ERROR: "550 WE REJECT SPAM FROM CHINA!!!"
    58.34 ERROR: "550 WE REJECT SPAM FROM CHINA!!!"

    These are the first two octets of an IP address.
    I'm wondering if this format is compatible with
    postfix? The reason I ask is that I'm still receiving
    email from the 219.136 network, which should
    be rejected. Here are a couple of header snippets:

    Received: from myfairladyfans.com (unknown [219.136.225.160])
        by mydomain.com (Postfix) with SMTP id BB7FA1787E3
        for <>; Thu, 29 Sep 2005 06:14:40 -040

    Received: from darksites.com (unknown [219.136.141.141])
        by mydomain.com (Postfix) with SMTP id 6EE551787D7
        for <>; Sat, 1 Oct 2005 20:42:34 -0400

    Why am I still receiving email from 219.136.225.160 and
    219.136.141.141, when I'm rejecting 219.136 in the access
    file?

    -Thanks
