smtpd_sasl_path should be a path relative to the Postfix queue directory like this: smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth > smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous > smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot > smtpd_tls_auth_only = no > smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/postfix.pem > smtpd_tls_key_file = $smtpd_tls_cert_file > smtpd_tls_received_header = yes > smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s > smtpd_use_tls = yes ... > -- end of saslfinger output -- You want to use Dovecot as authentication provider and let Dovecot access a MySQL database for authentication, right? Can you login to Dovecot with an account that has been defined in the MySQL Database? Does Dovecot create a socket in /var/spool/postfix/private/auth? Can Postfix (user: postfix) read/write from/to that socket? What does Dovecot log, when you try to auth? How do you try to authenticate? Have you tried a telnet session on port 25 and/or 587? I'll be offline for a while. It's lage night in Germany ... ;) p@rick -- All technical questions asked privately will be automatically answered on the list and archived for public access unless privacy is explicitely required and justified. saslfinger (debugging SMTP AUTH): <http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/>
