[gentoo-user] POSTFIX and SASL

[Joe Strusz]

Ive read every forum on the site, and even ventured over the Wiki for 
even more redundant reading.  Ive read the entire postfix handbook, 
and still have not found an answer to this problem.  Its been two 
weeks now I haven't been able to send mail from outside the network 
to non local users.

Heres my /etc/postfix/main.cf:

alias_database = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
alias_maps = hash:/etc/mail/aliases
biff = no
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
command_directory = /usr/sbin
config_directory = /etc/postfix
content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
debug_peer_level = 2
default_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
empty_address_recipient = MAILER-DAEMON
home_mailbox = .maildir/
html_directory = no
inet_interfaces = all
local_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
mail_owner = postfix
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
mydestination = op, op.$mydomain, $mydomain
mydomain = mydomain.com
myhostname = op.mydomain.com
mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8, *.*.*.*(my WAN ip)
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
queue_minfree = 120000000
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.1.5-r2/readme
sample_directory = /etc/postfix
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
setgid_group = postdrop
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtpd_data_restrictions = reject_unauth_pipelining
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/ssl/postfix/server.pem
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/ssl/postfix/server.crt
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/ssl/postfix/server.key
smtpd_tls_loglevel = 3
smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
smtpd_use_tls = yes
tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 450
virtual_alias_domains = myvirtual.com
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual


And heres /etc/sasl2/smtpd.conf:

pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain login

And heres /etc/conf.d/saslauthd:

# $Id: saslauthd.sysconfig,v 1.1 2001/05/02 10:55:48 wiget Exp $
# Authentications mechanism (for list see saslauthd -v)
SASL_AUTHMECH=pam


# Hostname for remote IMAP server (if rimap auth mech is used)
# Ldap configuration file (if ldap auth mech is used)
SASL_MECH_OPTIONS=


# Extra options (for list see saslauthd -h)
SASLAUTHD_OPTS=


And last but not least, heres a description of the problem...

TLS and everything else works great.  However as soon as I check that 
little box in outlook express that says "my smtp server requires 
authentication" on the client whom worsk out of the office on home 
internet lines.. the password box keeps reappearing, and accepting 
any passwords... i ran the line "saslpasswd2 -c username" to no 
avail.  Same issue.

Postfix was compiled with SASL support:

[ebuild   R   ] mail-mta/postfix-2.1.5-r2  -ipv6 -ldap -mailwrapper 
-mbox +mysql +pam -postgres +sasl (-selinux) +ssl -vda 0 kB

And when i telnet to 25 and issue the ehlo command, i do get AUTH 
PLAIN lines...

whats going on?

please help

im racking my brains.
