Postfix doesn't do SASL on its own, it depends on Dovecot or Cyrus, just read here: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html > > This all revolves around finding a way to use: > reject_sender_login_mismatch on smtpd_sender_restrictions > without having to keep a separate smtpd_sender_login_maps > hash file updated. If you want to be able to use postfix with ldap tables, you *must* have the ldap support, off course, postfix support "plug-ins" architecture, so, it is likely that you just need to add the ldap part. As for Mac: I don't know exactly how to do it, but in the worst of the cases, it would involved recompiling postfix (or, maybe, compile the plug-in). I don't know how to do it, because I use Debian, and I just had to install the package: postfix-ldap, and everything was just fine after that. > > Currently, I believe SASL is using Open Directory to reference > User Name and Password information for SASL to work, as I haven't > duplicated this information anywhere. > > Since my Postfix is not compiled to use LDAP, how is SASL accessing > Open Directory information?
