Did you use the security/cyrus-sasl port?
First, check the permissions of the sasldb.db file, they need to be:
for postfix w/SMTP AUTH & cyrus-imapd:
-rw-r----- cyrus mail sasldb.db
for sendmail w/SMTP AUTH & cyrus-imapd:
-rw-r----- cyrus wheel sasldb.db
Anyone know how to run sendmail as an alternate group (i.e. mail)?
The security/cyrus-sasl port installs the pwcheck daemon. This daemon needs
to be started before you can authenticate passwords from the systems
password file.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/pwcheck.sh start
