Up until yesterday the following was providing Postfix SMTP client SASL TLS authentication with my email provider's outgoing email server (configs have been sanitized for public posting):
#/etc/postfix/main.cf myhostname = beasty.sleepy.cat mydomain = sleepy.cat smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic mynetworks_style = host alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases relayhost = [smtp.acme.com]:submission smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd smtp_sasl_security_options = noplaintext, noanonymous smtp_sasl_tls_security_options = noanonymous smtp_tls_security_level = may smtp_sasl_type = saslc #../generic m...@beasty.sleepy.cat m...@acme.com #../sasl_passwd [smtp.acme.com]:submission m...@acme.com:secret_passwd Did chmod 600 for the sasl_passwd file and ran postmap(8) run on generic and sasl_passwd for DB file generation, then checked with 'postfix check', then reload configs with '/etc/rc.d/postfix reload'. Anyway, something has changed sometime since my previous -current update dated ~May 2015; after upgrading to -current dated Aug 22, 2015 the above configuration no longer works. Below appears to be the pertinent bits from /var/log/maillog; date prefix removed for clarity: .. beasty postfix/qmgr[7099]: 1AFE11F1FA9: \ from=<m...@beasty.sleepy.cat>, size=290, nrcpt=1 (queue active) beasty postfix/qmgr[7099]: warning: \ private/smtp socket: malformed response beasty postfix/master[5621]: warning: \ process /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp pid 7139 killed by signal 4 .. beasty postfix/master[5621]: warning: \ /usr/libexec/postfix/smtp:bad command startup -- throttling beasty postfix/error[5878]: 1AFE11F1FA9: \ to=<some...@somewhere.com>, relay=none, \ delay=1.4, delays=0.16/1.2/0/0.07, dsn=4.3.0, \ status=undeliverable (unknown mail transport error) I'm hoping someone can point me towards a solution or work-around so I can go back to using the native tools for mail relaying.
