Sure. Why did you (why did the author of the guide) choose Cyrus SASL? If you are using Dovecot IMAP, it makes absolutely no sense then to use Cyrus SASL. Dovecot SASL is much easier to set up. If you're using something else for IMAP, Dovecot SASL is a reason to consider changing. http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html#server_dovecot http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL Hint: if an online guide tells you do do something silly, that's a reason to consider it suspect. Another hint: use and trust the Postfix documentation. Many thousands of people are generating web content saying how they set up Postfix. They might not know any more than you do about it. If you read and understand the documentation, they definitely will not know more than you do. -- http://rob0.nodns4.us/ -- system administration and consulting Offlist GMX mail is seen only if "/dev/rob0" is in the Subject:
