Try -d+auth to turn on more authentication debugging.

Since you saw nothing thereafter, not even a connection from the client,
are you sure that you told the client to connect to port 27 instead of
the default port?

Since you're setting server_realm, are you sure that the user
identifiers in the DB are all realm-qualified?

I can't directly help; I vaguely remember all sorts of "interesting"
debugging issues using sasldb back when I did that; these days, I use
cyrus_sasl for GSSAPI and use an Exim-specific password file for
password-based mail-sending.

As an side: at $previous_employer, I set the policy that as an exception
to the normal rule, email-sending passwords could be written down
because they were generated for the user as pure randomness to protect
against spammers using dictionary attacks; compromise of this
mail-sending-only password would not give the ability to read any email,
"only" send new email as that user. Since people configured their
password in, eg, whatever MTA they used at home, this password
separation policy seemed to work well.

That looks good.

There should be something showing when someone connects. Since it made
it into other logs, I strongly suspect that the client software wasn't
using port 27.

To confirm this, it's useful to have the pid in the log lines; it's not
by default, but you can turn that on with log_selector in the main
config section:
log_selector = +pid

If you want to test manually, I'mm attaching a short program to let you
cut&paste challenge responses. You could then telnet and run this in a
separate window.
