On my Mac, I am trying:
...
\definefontfamily[mainface][rm][Optima]
\setupbodyfont[mainface,10pt]
...
{\bf Bold} and {\it Italic} and {\rm Regular} text.

What do I need to do to get actual bold and italics in my output?
\bi == \bf\it
Or by "actual bold" you mean something different?
Yes, in my output everything is regular, there is no bold or italics text, even when I use \bf or \it
What do you get from
mtxrun --script=fonts --list --all --pattern=Optima
hermione:Export and Metapost gerben$ mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=optima

Hm. Here, ConTeXt only found subfont #5 until I rebuilt the font cache, then it looked like yours.

And the minimal example (plus \starttext ... \stoptext) worked.

(Latest ConTeXt on MacOS Mojave.)
