8 Do you have smtpd_tls_auth_only enabled? I spent hours wondering why it
9 wasn't offering AUTH until I realised I had enabled this; if it's
10 enabled you need to be using TLS before it'll offer AUTH (as in, you
11 actually have to type STARTTLS). What happens when you type AUTH PLAIN
12 without it offering it?

17 I don't think it actually matters which port; IIRC it just enables
18 STARTTLS by default on 465.
