   These three are wrong; correct form is:  [194.52.18.199]/32

   You possibly want to allow entire subnet:  [194.52.18.0]/24
   Don't put any attributes at these lines either, unless you
   *really* need them.   The  policy-builder.sh  script adds
   needed attributes.

   This last one is the error.

   The  [0.0.0.0]/0  WILDCARD must exist *only* at the   smtp-policy.src
   at which you must pick one of four (well, three) variants for address
   and domain wildcards (latter one is ".")
