When I used the guide for an Ubuntu 7.10 server(http://howtoforge.com/perfect_server_ubuntu7.10) I was installing Postfix and when I checked to see if SMTP-AUTH and TLS worked properly it didn't match what I should have gotten. I have the line 250-STARTTLS, but instead of 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN and 250-AUTH=PLAIN LOGIN I have 250-AUTH PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 NTLM LOGIN CRAM-MD5 and 250-AUTH=PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 NTLM LOGIN CRAM-MD5
Then create it as shown on http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_server_ubuntu7.10_p5 : Code: echo 'pwcheck_method: saslauthd' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf echo 'mech_list: plain login' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf Restart Postfix afterwards.
