Could it be that authentication depends on a daemon and that daemon isn't in your start-up scripts? But without details of how it was configured I'm just guessing. So it could be as simple as: "/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon start" And then ensuring it is in the start-up. Post here output of postconf, and also any errors, and others can probably give more specific advice. Thanks for your consideration I run "/etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon start" it is done but nothing change I still receive the error. I don't know how to ensure it is in the start-up. you can find output of postconf as a attachment if I don't use secure authentication (SSL) thundarbarid ask me to enter password and after that I receive this "login to server mx.mydomain failed "
