VPS Ubuntu 20.04 postfix 3.4.13 and dovecot 2.3.7.2

 

I'm making progress but still not there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

I'm getting the errors:

warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: Connection refused

fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms

 

I have a param in main.cf: smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth

I do not have a folder /etc/postfix/private/auth

I do have a folder /etc/postfix/auth but nothing is in it.

 

How can I fix this error?

Good.

What is the Postfix logging for this? Be sure to include more than only the
delivery error (i.e. logging from pickup or smtpd; cleanup; qmgr; ...).

 

This is the first problem that you need to fix.

That is the second problem to fix. I suspect a firewalling or routing
problem.
