After hours of digging into this, that particular message
seems to have come up because I didnt want plaintext
coming across in the smtp connection so I set:
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous, noplaintext
By having noplaintext I got the msg because my
dovecot and SASL configs weren't setup to handle
anything but plain and login, so...
in /etc/dovecot.conf
auth default {
mechanisms = plain login digest-md5
}
in smtpd.conf:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain login digest-md5
Adding digest-md5 solved that error message.
The SASL doc didnt explain about setting up
smtpd_sasl_security_options with noplaintext (afaik) in
what I was reading per the mechanisms so I got lost.
Im just posting this for the next guy who might have
a problem.
Thanks for your pointers.
