OK, so I got the postfix-tls package, didn't know about that thanks! But still cant find saslauthd... don't I need to start it? Now an ehlo over telnet shows AUTH and STARTTLS like expected and I created /usr/local/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf with the line 'pwcheck_method: pam' (although shouldn't it be pwcheck_method:saslauthd ?) but when I try to login via an MUA it rejects my system user passwords.... can you please help me with what this means?

Thanks!!!!!


If you really desperately need saslauthd, you will need Postfix 2 and SASL2. You can get them for Woody from backports.org:

deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable postfix cyrus-sasl2
deb-src http://www.backports.org/debian stable postfix cyrus-sasl2

As far as your user/pass from your MUA being rejected, make sure
that you either have all the appropriate files (passwd/shadow/whatever)
inside of Postfix's chroot environment, or that it is not running in
a chroot.
