What's your machines hostname?
Is it the same as $myhostname in postfix?

you might want to add:

auxprop_plugin: sasldb

It should work without also, because SASL falls back to the default
auxprop_plugin sasldb if nothing else is given, but then... one never
knows...

you run smtpd chrooted. GEt it out of the chroot while you try to get
SMTP AUTH going. Later you can go for more complex setups.

What are the permissions on sasldb?
It is /etc/sasldb2?

Don't deprive the community of that!
