Hello, I've followed http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge and then this http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge (missing out the quota patch part) and while I can now receive emails to my virtual accounts (both pop and imap) and send emails from telnet localhost 25, I can't get the server to allow Thunderbird to send emails. My /var/log/mail.log says the following... Code: Mar 13 17:10:00 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: starting TLS engine Mar 13 17:10:00 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: connect from myIP[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Mar 13 17:10:06 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed Mar 13 17:10:06 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: warning: myIP[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: SASL PLAIN authentication failed Mar 13 17:10:06 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: warning: myIP[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed Mar 13 17:10:07 servername postfix/smtpd[8823]: disconnect from myIP[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Anyone got any ideas as to what I've done wrong? Thank you in advance
Nevermind, I've fixed it. saslauthd had become zombied, and thus I assume ignored a change to /etc/pam.d/smtp. Killed the pid, checked the files, changed it back to an earlier version, /etc/init.d postfix restart, postfix check, /etc/init.d/saslauthd restart thanks anyway
