According to saslfinger output, Cyrus SASL is trying to use mechanisms that differ from the ones that you want to use. Cyrus SASL uses these: -- mechanisms on localhost -- 250-AUTH CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN NTLM LOGIN You want to use PLAIN and LOGIN instead: -- content of /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf -- pwcheck_method: saslauthd mech_list: login plain Perhaps Cyrus SASL picks up settings from a different smtpd.conf file. What is the result of: find / -name smtpd.conf and what is the content of the files? Wietse
