I know you're testing. but once you get a "stable" config, restart is
often unnecessary. in most cases a 'postfix reload' is enough (and even
that isn't necessary in general, as most postfix services are relatively
short lived and will reread the conf at some time). of course, if you
change an IP:port, ..., you need to restart.

the 'd' in "-d" stands for "default". Use

# postconf myhostname
or
# postconf -n myhostname
or
# postconf -h myhostname

instead.
