Did you follow the SASL documentation in Ubuntus Postfix documentation? On Debian/Ubuntu etc. you have to add the postfix user to the sasl group. > according to the redhat website > that tells me that it is because postfix is linked against the wrong > version of berkely db. > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734088 Nope.

Cyrus SASL opens sasldb as fallback when all other attempts to do AUTH have failed. That in turn says your current setup is non-functional. Which docs did you follow? What's your current setup? p@rick -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Axel von der Ohe, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Joerg Heidrich
