Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: postfix

I am attempting to set up Postfix with SASL authentication on a server
with 9.10.  I have installed the dovecot-postfix package, and both
incoming and outgoing email work.  However, I cannot get SASL
authentication to work.  The /etc/postfix/main.cf file shows that
Dovecot SASL authentication should be enabled, but when I telnet in and
do a "ehlo", this is all I get:

mich...@mamarley-laptop:~$ telnet mail.michaelmarley.com 25
Trying 66.26.248.238...
Connected to thefirstm.dyndns.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 michaelmarley.com ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu)
ehlo michaelmarley.com
250-michaelmarley.com
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
250-VRFY
250-ETRN
250-STARTTLS
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-8BITMIME
250 DSN

Nothing about "AUTH" appears, and sending the "AUTH" command results in:

503 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled

Other than this error, there is no other indication of the failure in
any of the logs.  I have posted my /etc/postfix/main.cf file.  If you
need any others, please tell me.
