If the OP has 'dovecot' all ready installed, that might be a viable option. Otherwise, he would be better off to simply configure SASL2 correctly. I would strongly recommend that the OP reads the Postfix documentation on SASL as well as visiting: http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/ and downloading and running the 'saslfinger' utility. He can then post the output preferably the Postfix forum, or else here. -- Gerard ger...@seibercom.net A well-known friend is a treasure. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

After creating the saslpass file, I added the appropriate lines to main.cf: smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/saslpass smtp_sasl_security_options = and restarted postfix. However, when I try to send an email, I see these lines in maillog: Sep 19 15:07:19 venus postfix/smtp[75188]: warning: unsupported SASL client implementation: cyrus Sep 19 15:07:19 venus postfix/smtp[75188]: fatal: SASL library initialization Also, postconf -A doesn't return anything. FWIW, postconf -a returns dovecot. Any ideas what is going wrong here? versions: postfix-2.6.5,1 cyrus-sasl-2.1.23 FreeBSD 7.0 This question really belongs on the Postfix forum. In any case: 1) Post the complete output of postconf -n 2) Post the contents of: /usr/local/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf 3) Please check: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html 4) Post the output of a telnet session to your mail server In the mail/postfix directory, do a make rmconfig then redo the config; i.e., make config. Be sure to enable SASL2. You also will probably need to enable a database format; i.e.,berkley, MySql or whatever you intend to use. If you ever intend to use TLS/SSL, now would be the time to enable it. Then do: make clean make deinstall make reinstall make distclean Check again with a telnet session and post the output if it still does not work. -- Jerry ges...@yahoo.com I was in Vegas last week.
