DBM files don't generally remove the data from the file, they just remove the pointers to the data. So you don't want strings, you'd want to check all the DBM keys. There are several ways to do this, though "db_dump -p auto-whitelist" may be easiest. There's a tool at http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk/tools/check_whitelist which you could probably use.
