Greetings,
I am "lucky" enough to have an
ISP that blocks outbound port 25 traffic. Fortunately, inbound is wide
open. However, I am not able to configure Postfix 2.1.5 to successfully
use my ISP mail server as a relayhost. I get a reply in my logs that
states:
warning: SASL
authentication failure: No worthy mechs found
Authentication
failed: cannot SASL authenticate to server
smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com[68.142.229.41]: no mechanism
available
I've edited main.cf
and added the following:
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps =
hash:/etc/postfix/saslpass
smtp_sasl_mechanism_filter = plain,
login
smtp_sasl_security_options =
I've updated my
password file "saslpass" to contain :
[smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com]
login:password
and ran postmap
hash:/etc/postfix/saslpass
And I've run postfix
reload... Oh, I also crossed my fingers that didn't seem to help either
:-)
Is SASL able to log into an smtp server like outlook does to send email? Or is there another solution I need to pursue? The good news is that inbound mail works great!
Thank you for your
help
Sean
