You need to store passwords in plaintext to use SASL.

Is there a sasl configuration file I should look at?  How should I store
passwords?  currently I have a mixture of plaintext and md5's that have
been imported  from a linux system.  should I store them all as md5's  I
like plaintext or something I can decode them later for a user if need be.

Sorry for all the questions.  The postfix config look pretty straight
forward, but looking at your configs might be more helpful.

Curtis,

You would need to compile your postfix with DB support
and sasl support.  Then you can simply use the dbmail_users
table as the authentication for sasl.

I currently run mine that way, I can provide config files
if you like.  Check out:

http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html

If you lookup sql for sasl you should find all the options
you need.  You get to craft the select statement which allows
you to use any table you like.

Subject: [Dbmail] smtp authentication


Hi,
 Is it possible to configure postfix to use dbmail's database for smtp
authentication?

I'm having a problem with evolution trying to do pop before smtp since I'm
using IMAP.  While I have imap configured  and imap before smtp, evolution
doesn't understand it and i get an error that states I'm trying to use pop
before smtp on a non-pop source. I'd be just as happy to configure postfix
for authentication.

Curtis
