Hello.
I'm getting `warning:xsasl_cyrus_server_get_mechanism_list: no
applicable SASL mechanisms' (/var/log/mail.log) and `fatal: no SASL
authentication mechanisms' (/var/log/mail.err) in Debian Squeeze.
Installed:
postfix: 2.7.1-1+squeeze1
libsasl2-2: 2.1.23.dfsg1-7
libsasl2-modules: 2.1.23.dfsg1-7
sasl2-bin: 2.1.23.dfsg1-7
What can I do to fix this?
There is a related bug report:

While the Postfix documentation Dr. Venema referred to has the necessary
clues, you can find Debian-specific ones in the full Debian bug record
and those clues may be more immediately useful if you don't want to
build Postfix from the pristine source:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=638045
If I'm reading that correctly, a direct fix would be to update to
version 2.8.4-1 (or later) of the Debian Postfix package, released
2011-08-20.
