Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: postfix
1. Install Ubuntu 6.10 (fresh) (or Feisty but lets stick to stable)
2. Install postfix
3. Follow the postfix 6.10 guide.
4. Normal sent mail without protection (tls) works.
5. TLS email fails with message in logs: " warning: SASL authentication
failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such file or directory"
Thunderbird keeps prompting for password and prompting trying from command line
as suggested somewhere shows a generic failure.
I have followed the guide to the drop many many times.
I consider this bug to be grave, needs a fix at least within 72 hours.
Immediatly if it is really not an end user issue. Since most production
Company email servers for others with fail.
Patches must be sent to: Edgy, (perhaps dapper) assume the bug exists in
their too. Feisty needs one too but not as urgent right now.
Something seems changed in latest postfix or saslauthd.
** Affects: postfix (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
