I'm not entirely sure if this is the place to post this but, I have a new error with postfix that popped up when using thunderbird. Code: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed Webmail works, just can't connect from outside. Which password is it referring to. I've double checked the password for [email protected] with mysql Could it have something to do with this: Code: 250-AUTH LOGIN NTLM DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN CRAM-MD5 Instead of: Code: 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN I can't change that. I did a grep for every mechlist that it found. Changing the values to plain login, didn't work. Edit: Oh, I should mention this is for sending mail, receiving it with courier and thunderbird works just fine.
Ubuntu 8.04 mail.log: Code: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed SASL PLAIN authentication failed: authentication failure SASL LOGIN authentication failed: authentication failure
Was having an issue with testsaslauthd not working unless i specified a path in the command. Created a symlink, and was hoping fixing that would take care of it, but it didn't. It made testsaslauthd work without manually entering a path. Code: rm -rf /var/run/saslauthd ln -s /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd /var/run/saslauthd Code: testsaslauthd -s smtp -u [email protected] -p password
I am getting quite suspicious that this is whats causing it: Code: 250-AUTH LOGIN NTLM DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN CRAM-MD5 It should read: Code: 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN I only told it to use plain login, I don't know why it's still wanting to use the extras. I changed the name of anything that could intercede smtpd.conf In both directories /usr/lib/sasl2 and /usr/lib64/sasl2, I changed the names of Sendmail.conf, smtpd.conf, and saslpaswd.conf incase they were overriding /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf. Code: pwcheck_method: saslauthd mech_list: plain login log_level: 7 allow plaintext: true auxprop_plugin: sql sql_engine: mysql sql_hostnames: 127.0.0.1 sql_user: mail_admin sql_passwd: mail_admin_pass sql_database: mail sql_select: select password from users where email = '%u@%r' I can't figure out what is overriding this. It can't be overriding the whole file, or I imagine it would be more broken. It's just overriding the mech list.

Accidentally nuked everything except mysql by trying to purge libsasl packages It kept some of my config files intact, but redoing it. It fixed the plain login issue. From Code: 250-AUTH LOGIN NTLM DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN CRAM-MD5 To Code: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN Unfortunately it didn't fix the thunderbird issue.
It works now... It was different error. Whatever happened when I nuked it, fixed the first one. I noticed it wasn't even connecting in the logs. I changed the smtp server on thunderbird to 25, which I find strange because it connected before on the 587 port. Could someone explain the difference between the two ports and why thunderbird defaults to 587. So, anybody reading this and having the same problem where the mech list isn't updating right. Nuke it, and check your ports. haha
