For the sake of Google: this solved it exactly. To stay inside the packaging, I commented out the protocol stuff and am continuing to use the provided milter.
Note that this means the provided documentation, while not wrong, is misleading for the Debian setup. As it defaults, the line given for the milter and the standard Debian config file don't work together.
