In master.cf I have enabled port 587: submission inet n - n - - smtpd -o smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject
However, when I telnet, AUTH does not seem to be offered: # telnet mail.example.com 587 Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx... Connected to mail.example.com. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail.example.com ESMTP Postfix ehlo me 250-mail.example.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 49152000 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN ^] Still, when I submit mail with Thunderbird, it asks for username/password, and if correct, the message is accepted. Postfix is configured to listen also on port 25 and port 2525. When I telnet to either one of these ports, Postfix announces AUTH: # telnet mail.example.com 2525 Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx... Connected to mail.example.com. Escape character is '^]'. 220 mail.example.com ESMTP Postfix ehlo me 250-mail.example.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 49152000 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-AUTH NTLM LOGIN PLAIN GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 250-AUTH=NTLM LOGIN PLAIN GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN ^] Would you please explain this? I have postfix-2.7.1,1 on FreeBSD 7.3-STABLE -- Janos Dohanics
