Hi all,
I seem to recall mention of SASL client support either being added, but can't
remember for sure. The wiki says
nothing about Client support (now, or in the future)...
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Sasl
So - is there support for it now? If not, is it planned for anytime soon?
what exactly are you missing?
* dovecot can be used from postfix to replace cyrus sasl
you even linked the documentation
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL
* dovecot supports authentication for POP3/IMAP
so hich sort fo "client support" are you missing?
CLIENT support... do you not understand the difference?
http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html#client_sasl
So that postfix can use dovecot-sasl for remotely authenticating against
another SMTP server, ie, for secure relays...
If I understand you right, you would like to make postfix authenticate against
a remote smtp server and relaying
all emails to it.
For this you don't need dovecot on your site.
I use it as follows on my debian lenny.
installed packages: postfix, libsasl2-modules
needed main.cf configuration options:
...
relayhost = [the.relayserver.com]
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/relay_passwd
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
...
Content of /etc/postfix/relay_passwd:
the.relayserver.com u...@domain.com:PASSWORD

Urban
