Are you sure about the last 'permit'. You are potentially making
yourself an open relay. I would suggest 'reject' as the correct action.

You might want to inquire on the Postfix forum for more info.

Hi!

I have a similar configuration - and run into the same problem before 
two weeks.


As I remember I expanded the following line in dovecot.conf:
--
mechanisms = plain login
--

It works for me and hopefully it is the correct solution (even if I am 
no dovecot-expert).


Kind regards,

 Jens

Hello all i have postfix running with dovecot-sasl and mysql as a backend.
It all runs good.

I run into trouble as where outlook 2003 fails to authenticate when 
sending e-mail.

I have thunderbird outlook2007 and 2003 clients.
The tunderbird and 2007 clients are working OK, the outlook2003 client 
get the relay access denied message.

In the postfix log i see it is not initiating sasl

they all use pop

i use dovecot 1.0.13
this is my posfix part of sasl

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_exceptions_networks = $mynetworks
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,
   permit_sasl_authenticated,
   reject_unauth_destination
   permit
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth

and this is my dovecot sasl part
# dovecot SASL
socket listen {
   client {
 # Assuming the default Postfix $queue_directory setting
 path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
 mode = 0660
 # Assuming the default Postfix user and group
 user = postfix
 group = postfix
   }
 }

Am i doing something wrong?
I guess if it is not configured right outlook 2007 and thunderbird will 
fail also!

Thank you so much that was it!
I just migrated from one server to another and that line did not made it 
in the new dovecot.conf file.


Well i need to use diff  more.
Thanks again
