I have followed the "Virtual Users and Domains with Postfix, Courier, MySQL, and SquirrelMail (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS) and I am running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server edition. I have not installed SquirrelMail. My problem is sending email. Using Evolution as the client, I have no problem logging in and receiving mail. And the SMTP server seems to be receiving mail no problem, amavisd, clam-av, spamassassin, all seem to working fine. I just can't send an email. Following is the result of "tail /var/log/syslog" Code: Jul 27 17:41:23 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 7665 exit status 1 Jul 27 17:41:23 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling Jul 27 17:42:23 crud-04 postfix/smtpd[7677]: warning: SASL per-process initialization failed: generic failure Jul 27 17:42:23 crud-04 postfix/smtpd[7677]: fatal: SASL per-process initialization failed Jul 27 17:42:24 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 7677 exit status 1 Jul 27 17:42:24 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling Jul 27 17:43:24 crud-04 postfix/smtpd[7682]: warning: SASL per-process initialization failed: generic failure Jul 27 17:43:24 crud-04 postfix/smtpd[7682]: fatal: SASL per-process initialization failed Jul 27 17:43:25 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 7682 exit status 1 Jul 27 17:43:25 crud-04 postfix/master[7576]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling Following is my /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf file Code: pwcheck_method:saslauthd mech_list:plain login allow_plaintext:true auxprop_plugin:mysql sql_hostname=127.0.0.1 sql_user:xxxxxxx sql_password:xxxxxx sql_database:mail sql_select:select password from users where email ='%u' Following is my /etc/pam.d/smtp file Code: auth required pam_mysql.so user=xxxxxxxxxx passwd=xxxxxxx host=127.0.0.1 db=mail table=users usercolumn=email passwdcolumn=password crypt=1 account sufficient pam_mysql.so user=xxxxxxxxxx passwd=xxxxxxx host=127.0.0.1 db=mail table=users usercolumn=email passwdcolumn=password crypt=1 Following is my /etc/postfix/main.cf file Code: # See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name.

From the command line I can login in to my sql database as the mail admin user succesfully and I can execute a query such as "Select email from users;" and it returns correct email addresses. I can also use the command Code: testsaslauthd -u xxxxx -p xxxxxxxx -f /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/mux And it return "OK" Can you help with my problem??
It must be Code: sql_hostnames[B][COLOR="Red"]:[/COLOR][/B] 127.0.0.1 not Code: sql_hostname[B][COLOR="Red"]=[/COLOR][/B]127.0.0.1
Many Thanks! Falko, I have using your site and the tutorials posted there for several years now. I find that all that I have used are well written and work without flaw! To think that a mistyped "=" instead of ":" was the problem. I must of looked over those files for hours and didn't catch that. What a second pair of eyes will do! Thanks for your sharp editing skills. Chuck
