You should compare the output of "postconf -n" with "postconf -d" to see which settings differ from default. Are you running Postfix in chroot mode? > > The cyrus-sasl-md5 rpm is installed? cyrus-sasl-plain is needed for > > supporting PLAIN and LOGIN. > > I tried yum install cyrus-sasl-md5 and it says that there's nothing > to do. Doesn't it get installed with cyrus-imapd? Cyrus SASL and Cyrus-IMAPd don't have that much to do with each other. It is just that both originate from same university (http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/) and that SASL is used by Cyrus-IMAPd as the authentication layer. > EJ Maybe saslfinger is helpful for you http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/ Patrick - author of one standard Postfix book: http://www.postfix-book.com/ - has an older howto on his site which may be partly helpful. Running a complex mailserver (Postfix + Cyrus-IMAPd) with virtual domains I think it would be good to intensively read the available documentation and to get the book.
