ok, it's 3 days I'm tryin to fix my smtp connection, I have been through
the whole configuration many times and getting the certificates also.
The last thing I did is add this line again in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_sasl_path = smtpd
which changed the error into a warning for postfix:
warning: foo[b.a.r.x]: SASL PLAIN authentication failed: authentication
failure
then, same for LOGIN:
postfix/smtpd[3962]: warning: foo[b.a.r.x]: SASL LOGIN authentication
failed: authentication failure
I used this howto at first:

and it was working for a long time.
I can post mor info if you need.
You shouldn't need to add that line because it's part of the default
config. Post the output of postconf | grep smtpd_sasl so we can see if
their is anything odd in your config.
Also make sure that you allow mynetworks before requiring authentication
like this example below. If you don't, your mail server will try to
authenticate access from localhost.
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks
permit_sasl_authenticated
