Thanks for your reply. i try to understand it. Postfix adds the AUTH=<> because of "such an identity is unknown or insufficiently authenticated." The main mail server ist not a postfix maschine but an Axigen Server. (axigen.com) so i can't set up "smtp_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps or smtp_discard_ehlo_keywords" If "smtp_sasl_auth_enable = no" is configured on the client, i won't try to authenticate anymore. So at the moment exchange is probably violating RFC but working. :) So is it possbile to tell postfix, that all messages are "sufficiently authenticated" so that it no AUTH=<> is send? Here the graphical setup :) webserver || Postfix Relay || Axigen Mailserver Thanks Dominik
