i'll guess the solution to my problem will be something simple and
obvious, because i know i ain't the first person to do this, but i've
been staring at it for days and can't see what's wrong.
os x snow leopard server; postfix 2.5.5; dovecot 1.1.17apple0.5
trying to get SMTP auth working via SASL. using a plain password
scheme and plain auth scheme over SSL. client is apple mail.
deliveries are working, and dovecot's pop3s and imaps are working
just fine. but when i attempt to use smtp auth, postfix says
SASL plain authentication failed
unable to lookup user record
Your Postfix uses Dovecot SASL. Have you tried to authenticate using a telnet
session, sending AUTH identity on command line?

scoured months worth of list archives and didn't see anything
specific to this. other eyes are appreciated! thanks.
