The auth info in question is the AUTH= keyword to the MAIL FROM command. So you need Postfix to do something like: MAIL FROM <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> AUTH=hagbardc RCPT TO <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DATA .. I'd have to look at the source to see if lmtpd will allow you to do this over a UNIX socket without actually AUTHenticating. -- Kenneth Murchison Oceana Matrix Ltd.
