The compiled policy database is in binary format, which
may make it weird looking.. Should the 'ndbmlook' have
some '-policydump' option to decode them ?

have any ideas on what might be the culprit here.
I have tried following kind of interactive running:
(Adapting to your paths)
$ /mail/bin/smtpserver -i -d 1
220 ...
