The logging you show is insufficient to determine whether authentication "is working". Please define your question more clearly and show some more logs. Try relaying mail from outside your network using TLS+SASL and see if that works. If you have problems, paste related logs and the unaltered output of 'postconf -n'. Anonymous TLS is fine and actually quite common; it just means the client did not have (or present) its own certificate, offered only anonymous TLS ciphers which were accepted by the server. Nothing to worry about here. -- Sahil Tandon <sa...@tandon.net>
