What's the output of

Code:

telnet localhost 25

and then

Code:

ehlo localhost

now?

 

here is


mail:~ # telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.tchosting.net ESMTP Postfix (2.3.2)

No changes... Unfortunately I'm no SUSE expert...

 

I notice that I do not have this line on my mail.cfg..

smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot

every time that I added I am not able to connect I getting this
..

Oct 31 17:58:10 mail postfix/master[12029]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 12280 exit status 1

Oct 31 18:11:43 mail postfix/master[12029]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 12304 exit status 1
when i do this command...I get this

mail:~ # postconf -a
cyrus
dovecot
mail:~ #


and getting this with this commenad
mail:~ # postconf -A
cyrus
mail:~ #

any ideas why I and not able to force post fix to use dovecot?

 

Remove dovecot from the smtpd_sasl_type line.

Postfix doesn't have to know anything about which POP3/IMAP daemon you use - it doesn't matter at all, therefore Postfix doesn't have to be configured for a certain POP3/IMAP daemon.
