Hi René,
Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, it does not seem to work
this way with Gentoo.

There is no sasl group in Gentoo. The mux socket belongs to root but
is writable by everyone :
# ll /run/saslauthd/
total 4
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 1 août 08:17 mux
-rw------- 1 root root 0 1 août 08:17 mux.accept
-rw------- 1 root root 5 1 août 08:17 saslauthd.pid

I do not have apparmor nor selinux installed on this system.

Yes, and all examples I found on the Internet seemed quite simple.
That’s why I am surprise that I cannot make it work on my server.
