a) you configured Cyrus SASL to use the auxprop_plugin: sasldb, but libsasl fails to find the database at /etc/sasldb2. b) you configured Cyrus SASL to use anything else but the auxprop_plugin: sasldb, but the plugin name you provided is unknown to Cyrus SASL causing libsasl to search for /etc/sasldb2 as a fallback resort c) you configured SMTP AUTH in Postfix's main.cf, but you did not provide a smtpd.conf to configure Cyrus SASLs part in the authentication process. As a result libsasl searches for /etc/sasldb2 as a fallback authentication database. If none of the alternatives above matches, send output from "saslfinger -s". p...@rick -- All technical questions asked privately will be automatically answered on the list and archived for public access unless privacy is explicitely required and justified. saslfinger (debugging SMTP AUTH): <http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/>
