Apologies. While I am remiss in not posting that particular error, I
did post the configuration you mention back on 1/18/2022 1:27:39 PM
in this same thread. I assumed you had seen them. Easy enough to
miss from that far back.
The error I mentioned happened when I attempted to set all three options above
with all three options set as shown. It is pasted here:
Jan 22 17:07:18 aux postfix/smtp[32115]: fatal: specify a password table via
the `smtp_sasl_password_maps' configuration parameter

I can generate new config dumps if you like, or reference the previous ones,
which except for the changes above are IIRC virtually unchanged.
Thanks for your efforts/
