ndbm is the Database-Format for sasldb. Your "auxprop_plugin" is "sasldb".

auxprop_plugin: sasldb

Run "sasldblistusers", maybe it is called "sasldblistusers2". There will be
Lines like

usersomething: userPassword

So set "smtpd_sasl_local_domain" to "something". This is the realm. The
Authentication-Id is "user". For Plain then
"user\0user\0password" (base64-encoded). But best to test this with a real
MUA.
