I need to implement a mailserver with postfix that can authenticat smtp clients
against an ldap server.
As I understand, I need sasl support to allow postfix authenticat clients before
they are allowd to send mail.
As I intend to auth against an OpenLDAP server I think I need to build sasl
--with_ldap, that requires me to have OpenLDAP installed.

I do not know if I need to build OpenLDAP with sasl support.

I'm also a bit confused about TLS. As far I understand, TLS allows hole
connection to be encrypted, while SASL only enables authentication. In doub, I
prefere to build with both supports and see later if I realy support them.

All this come together with my intention to use ISPman, that enables ISP
services to be administrated by an LDAP database.
