Ok, to clarify that problem, it’s happening with all builds, 3.0, 3.0.01 and 3.1xxxx
postconf -a dovecot postconf -A … nothing postconif -d (defaults) diff with postconf - p (configured) < smtp_sasl_type = cyrus --- > smtp_sasl_type = dovecot However as I say, cyrus should not be compiling in, nor should it be in the default, unless I tell it it’s there… yes/no? The “make” specifically tells the build it’s dovecot, so that should be the default. is it reading another postfix.conf file from somewhere by default? hmmm Now to the warnings/errors themselves. these are postfix master warnings - which I have yet to track down > postfix/master[87514]: warning: /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp: bad command > startup -- throttling > postfix/master[87514]: warning: process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp pid 90420 > exit status 1 These are smtp fatal errors, > postfix/smtp[90420]: fatal: SASL library initialization > postfix/smtp[90420]: warning: unsupported SASL client implementation: cyrus robert > On 14 Apr 2015, at 11:42, Robert Chalmers <racu...@icloud.com> wrote: > > > I built 3.1 with this make line. > > robert$ make -f Makefile.init dynamicmaps=yes CCARGS='-DUSE_TLS -DHAS_PCRE > -DUSE_SASL_AUTH -DDEF_SERVER_SASL_TYPE=\"dovecot\" -I/opt/local/include' > AUXLIBS='-L/opt/local/lib -lssl -lcrypto' AUXLIBS_PCRE='-L/opt/local/lib > -lpcre' makefiles > > and the mail.log is showing this now… > It appears to be looking for cyrus, which I’ve never used? or am I looking at > the wrong messages… There seem to be two, but are they related.
