the answer is here.. password must be plain-text:

"chmod 600" for the sasl_passwd + sasl_passwd.db is enough.

sasl authentication - how to hash password maps

[Zalezny Niezalezny]

Dear Colleagues,

I`m trying to establish TLS connection between our postfix MTA and Postfix
relay server protected by password.

At the moment my password map file looks like this. Plain text with domain,
username and password.

[root@server01 postfix]# cat sasl_passwd
relay01.local test:testXX


Is it possible to hash that password some how ? This password shouldnt be
visible for the user.
If yes, how to do it then ?



Thanks in advance for any hints.
