Thanks for your response. Yes I have changed the config since my first post, sorry! It looks like the service is started.
9340 root /usr/sbin/saslauthd -m /var/run/saslauthd -a pam -n 2
9341 root /usr/sbin/saslauthd -m /var/run/saslauthd -a pam -n 2
I made the changes you suggested but got the same error. Here is the entire main.cf.

i've been monitoring both your questions.
ge.com/Net working/Pr otocols/ Ap plication_ Protocols/ Email/SMTP /Q_2327899 1.html]
s = noanonymous
ns = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, check_relay_domains
Can you confirm ps saslauthd has been started (wax | grep saslauthd.)
You should get a result similar to
942? S 1:07 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -m /var/run/saslauthd/mux -a shadow
Could you also repost your entire main.cf with comments included(im trying to work out if you just have bad formatting or your actually missing some Varibals , its a little hard to follow :) )
eg. in this config your missing "mydomain" yet on line 48 you reference myorigin = $mydomain (however in your other question [http://www.experts-exchan
you have mydomain defined on line3 ?? -- which should just be your FQDN i might add.)
then you should define your host name using myhostname = mail.[mydomain.net]
once again in this config i dont see mynetworks?.... Maybe i should wait until i get the current config :) however i'll keep posting whilst its fresh in my mind
Now for your SASL config.. firstly try and keep it all together (makes it easy to diag and refer to incase you need to check the config - rather than me(you) having to scroll up and down looking for all your settings. Whilst im at it, are you sure your line 33 is correct?
i think it should read: smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
So formatted nicely it should read..
# ENABLE SASL
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_option
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
Now i also dont see any section for relay_domains (maybe you have it commented out so Its not posted..? either way please paste this below "relay_domains = "
smtpd_recipient_restrictio
Ok now save and reload postfix.
Try again and let me know your results... (dont forget to give me your complete main.cf
cCheers,
Phil
p.s Do i get points for both questions if i solve it :)
