Sorry, there was more (I just didnt't see it) Sep 29 22:55:57 vps postfix/smtpd[13419]: warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: Permission denied Sep 29 22:55:57 vps postfix/smtpd[13419]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms Sep 29 22:55:58 vps postfix/master[11378]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 13419 exit status 1 Sep 29 22:55:58 vps postfix/master[11378]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling
