Aw: Re: IMAP works, but no SMTP (for sending mail)

[benjamin200 at arcor.de]

Hello,
the problem is still unsolved. The error messages has changed now. If I try to start an SMTP connection using telnet or an Mail-Client I get the follwing entry in /var/log/messages:

Feb 15 10:49:24 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: smtpd_sasl_initialize: SASL config file is smtpd.conf
Feb 15 10:49:24 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: sql_select option missing
Feb 15 10:49:24 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: auxpropfunc error no mechanism available
Feb 15 10:49:24 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for plugin: sql

Feb 15 10:51:14 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: warning: SASL authentication problem: unknown password verifier
Feb 15 10:51:14 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: warning: localhost[127.0.0.1]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed
Feb 15 10:51:14 server postfix/smtpd[23837]: > localhost[127.0.0.1]: 535 Error: authentication failed


I just try to different kinds of smtpd.conf

Version-1
pwcheck_method: saslauthd

Version-1
pwcheck_method: auxprop
auxprop_plugin: sql
mech_list: plain login cram-md5 digest-md5
sql_engine: mysql
sql_hostnames: localhost
sql_user: mailadmin
sql_passwd: geheim
sql_database: mail
sql_select: select password from accountuser where username='%u@%r'

But I get always the same errors. It doesn’t work. Could you help. Should I give you more information – what does you need?

P.S:
Saslauth works:

root at server sasl2 # testsaslauthd -u 10001 -p test
0: OK "Success."
root at server sasl2 #


Thanks,
Benjamin
