    Hello all. Ok I have a perfect server setup.. My ISP blocks out going emails and i am trying to setup relay but i am stuck at authentication. I added the smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd line to the main.cf
    and made the file sasl_passwd in this format

    [hostname] username:password
    For example:

    [smtp.broadband.rogers.com] [email protected]:hockey
    then wrote this command
    postmap /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

    but the email still sends back to the sender and with same Authentication Required [503]

    Sometimes it takes a little bit longer, especially when we're busy...

    Did you use this tutorial? http://www.howtoforge.com/postfix_relaying_through_another_mailserver
    Any errors in your mail log?
