Let's suppose your smtpd runs chrooted in /var/spool/smtpd. Did you check that the lib files for name resolution are present in /var/spool/smtpd/lib ? There should be at least libnss_dns.so.2 and libnss_files.so.2 (for SuSE 6.3, don't know for 7.0). Also check that the files /var/spool/smtpd/etc/nsswitch.conf, /var/spool/smtpd/etc/resolv.conf /var/spool/smtpd/etc/hosts are present and have the right contents.
