I have recently removed everything from access file (after your email), so now I can only send from my machine, on other machines authentication still does not work, yes have I cyrus-sasl-plain I double checked with yum and confirmed it, I have not put any hosts in ~/relay-domains, I dont know what I am doing wrong but I am quite sure it is probably something rather silly. Do I have to blatantly say somewhere, some-random-domain require authentication? or something like that? I haven't the slightest idea what I am missing.
