Chris, sorry:

my bad, I shouldn't have used 'telnet policyd' as a 'valid test',
I was using 'telnet/ehlo/quit', that works with postfix and amavis, so I
just thought of running same against policyd, which obviously is not
correct..

BUT, in my original testing, I was only using telnet to valid
postfix/amavis ports, where 'ehlo/quit' is a valid test.

....and.... it's all back to go, I'm not sure what I've done wrong, I was
at it for a day or longer, using 3 sets of config files (default, server1,
server2), and, I would have been tearing hair out of my head if I had any
left, I just couldn't get anywhere...

postfix was logging smtpd errors on failed telnets, fwiw

anyhow, I haven't seen single error since yesterday (on idle, just test
emails)

thanks again
