How do I configure Postfix to authenticate with SASL? Since I replaced my hard disk and installed Debian Sarge, plus Postfix/TLS, I've been unable to send mail through mail.magma.ca (Magma is my ISP). Here's what I get:

How can I tell Postfix to either authenticate sucessfully or to not try to authenticate at all? Here's a snippet from /var/log/mail.warn that may help Mar 14 12:58:11 orbit postfix/smtpd[14670]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms Mar 14 12:58:12 orbit postfix/master[14650]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 14670 exit status 1 Mar 14 12:58:12 orbit postfix/master[14650]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling I have several SASL packages installed: $ dpkg -l | grep -i sasl ii gsasl 0.2.5-1 GNU SASL commandline utility ii libgsasl7 0.2.5-1 GNU SASL library ii libsasl2 2.1.19-1.5 Authentication abstraction library ii postfix-tls 2.1.5-9 TLS and SASL support for Postfix ii sasl2-bin 2.1.19-1.5 Programs for manipulating the SASL users dat but I obviously don't know how to get Postfix to work with SASL. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance, Walt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
