Debian :: Postfix SASL When Using Smtp
Apr 28, 2010
I installed webmin + postfix + dovecot + sasl2-bin to get a webserver running. I have fixed all the problems, but there is still one. I am totally new to sasl, so I am sorry if I made a stupid mistake.

Thunderbird gives the following error when trying to send mail: Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to the SMTP server mail.virovene.org was lost in the middle of the transaction. Try again later or contact your network administrator. mail.err Apr 28 23:33:18 virovene postfix/smtpd[6264]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms

I have been faithfully following the postfix/sasl/etc install docs from [URL] and seem to have hit a minor snag with SASL authentication for SMTP. KMail cryptically leaves me with a generic auth fail notice and tailing the mail logs gives me

so i set out to change the default smtp port the server uses because my ISP blocks port 25 and i need the email to work in outlook. this morning i could receive email, but not send it. so i did some research and thought that i needed to edit the master.cf file in /etc/postfix/ by commenting out this line: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -oand replace it with587 inet n - n - - smtpd (587 being the port i want to use)somewhere along the lines postfix server stopped running and now i cannot get it to start.if i try using SSH it crashes immediately and if i restart it in simple control panel nothing happens

I have Postfix up and working perfect. It receives and sends email fine with no TLS and SASL but I installed Dovecot and then generated some self signed certificates using 'openssl' and for some reason I can't send from my IMAP server. I get this in my logs:
Code:
Mar 3 11:20:45 mail dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<carlos>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.1.1.204, lip=192.168.0.200, TLS
Mar 3 11:21:20 mail postfix/smtpd[1386]: connect from tuna.mydomain.tld[10.1.1.204]

I have an issue where postfix is setup to use dovecot auth and as far as I know it works, if i login using telnet to the mail server i can authorize myself y providing the base64 encoded user & password. so if i can login, why cant my email clients. have tried thunderbird and evolution. this is the mail.log relavant entries for sucessful login via telnet
[Code]...
Login by pop or imap works flawlessly that what i dont get. From what i see it SHOULD be working. It it changes things, im using postfixadmin, postfix, dovecot. passwords and info stored in mysql tables. passwords are md5 encrypted. I thought that may be the issue, but that dosnt make sence.

I for some reason can't get Cyrus-sasl to work completely. I have to manually start it via saslauthd -a show if I let it start up itself or do a service saslauthd start or restart testsaslauthd will fail. I need help getting this fixed. I tried setting /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd to shadow instead of Pam but still no luck. Also when I try to login my postfix server I get an error stating that my username or password is incorrect even though it is right and I can receive mail from dovecot.

I'm trying to expand my Courier+MySQL+Postfix+PostfixAdmin server to use SASL logins on Postfix so I can relay on my server. After following several guides I still can't get it to work: Postfix logs show the user transcript and end with "Authentication failure" but it does not tell me what told it that the login failed. The messages log show this:
Feb 19 22:48:55 sportlaan-server saslauthd[7254]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=berend] [service=smtp] [realm=mydomain.com] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error] Which I don't get because I don't think it should be using PAM... I think...
The setup is similar to this one: http://www.howtoforge.org/virtual_users_postfix_courier_mailscanner_clamav_centos_p6
My SASL config has this in it:
/usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
log_level: 3
authdaemond_path: /var/spool/authdaemon/socket
mech_list: plain login

I'm using postfix with unix accounts for a while now and I just realized today that SASL authentication, instead of working only with the USERNAME, it also works if the username is followed by ANYDOMAIN.COM
So, let's say I have the following UNIX users: tim, mike, john. If I set the Outgoing Username:[URL]..(where whatever.com can be any name you can think of) IT WORKS, even though it shouldn't, it should only work with tim, mike and john without any domain name. Does anyone know what might cause this and what's the workaround to this problem?

I am running the following on CentOS 5.5 (Final)
dovecot 1.0.7
saslauthd 2.1.22
When I send an email via TLS I see the following log entries.
Code:
Oct 14 11:53:06 ns2 postfix/smtpd[11372]: connect from unknown[172.16.1.159]
Oct 14 11:53:06 ns2 postfix/smtpd[11372]: setting up TLS connection from unknown[172.16.1.159]
[Code]....
What I'm really curious about is there is an intial TLS connection with a 256 bit cipher, but then.. The last entry states "sasl_method=PLAIN" - so surely this is not encrypted? Or am I misunderstanding how it works?

I am re setting up a server of mine running red hat enterprise Linux server 6 and I had all of this working befor but for some reason I had troubles getting sasl to work and now when I login my smtp server I get an error stating that my username or password is incorrect though I am sure I am entering both correctly. Would anyone know what could be happening? I have been spending days on the web looking for the solution and only went from sasl not working when started as a service to this. For some reason I can't use Pam with saslauthd and had to use shadow instead of which from what I hear I get to use better methods of secure authentication with smtp

Slackware 13 64 - full installation
Postfix from slackbuilds dot org
Dovecot from same
has anyone recompiled Postfix using the Slackbuild script, modifying the script to include support for Cyrus-SASL, OpenLDAP, and MySQL in the build, while retaining Dovecot SASL and TLS? If so I would appreciate it if they could post the CCARGS and AUXLIBS commands. I am having some difficulty getting this working.

I was reading over and checking the How to section on the Wiki for Postfix TLS / SASL. I followed it completely and everything seems to be working fine however I am confused about the following section:
smtpd_tls_security_level = may
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/pki/tls/private/mail.example.com.key
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/pki/tls/certs/mail.example.com.cert[code].....

I'm running a server with Ubuntu 10.04 and I have installed postfix and courier. The server can recieve mail and I can fetch them using POP, but when I try to send mail it doesn't work. Postfix itself can send email if i telnet from localhost and I am using my ISP as a relay because they block port 25. I'm using outlook 2007 on my client computer and it just says that the server rejects the login attempt and tells me to check my username and password. Postfix listens on port 12 as well because the client connection also has outgoing on port 25 blocked. I have tried to use telnet to connect to the server, and I can connect. This is what I get:
[Code]....
Now what? I've tried searching for the answer but all I can come up with is AUTH PLAIN or AUTH LOGIN, but I don't know what to type after that.

I'm running Postfix primarily as a local email server. There is no email coming in from other machines, and there are no other machines using it to send mail. But I'd like it to be able to send mail. I use Evolution for my normal email stuff, and it's configured to send mail to my ISP's smtp server, and that's working fine. But I occasionally send mail from the command line, using the "mail" or "mutt" utilities. (Mutt because the standard mail doesn't support attachments.) These don't use Evolution's configuration, they depend upon whatever is listening to port 25 - and that's Postfix. So all I should need to do is to give Postfix the smtp server, user name, and password. My problem is that Postfix has voluminous documentation online, and I haven't been able to find this simple configuration in it.

I've got a server running 9.10, and I'm having a few issues with SMTP. It's got Postfix and Dovecot installed, and eventually I'll add content filtering, but I need to get past this issue first.
I know there's a lot of posts out there for Postfix issues, but I haven'tbeen able to find one specific to my issue.
IMAP and POP3 work fine through SSL, and the server can send mail without any problems. That's all fine and dandy, but I need to utilize an e-mail client (like evolution or outlook). Everytime I set up a user in Evolution, the smtp connection times out, or is refused. I know it's not a firewall issue. Port 25 is open, as well as 465. So I should be able to connect through SSL. I want to be able to connect through SMTP using the same credentials as IMAP.
Here's my main.cf file:
Code:
myhostname = mail.adamwgay.com
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
[Code].....
everytime I get things rolling, this issue pops up. I don't know if it's something I'm setting up wrong in the client, or if it's a configuration error on my part in postfix.
I'm also having a bit of an issue with my aliases. I've basically got a lot of addresses going to root, then root going to the main user, but it's not actually delivering the mail to the main user. It sends it straight to root.

I have just built an internal postfix server for sending mail only, it's not accessible outside our network. I will be sending from our domain, Rewriting the from field to abc.com is turned on in the postfix config. A friend is telling me this will not work as they will do reverse lookups on our domain. What does this mean? Obviously the domain the email is sent from is a valid domain. If they do a lookup from the IP the mail came from it would be global crossing, our internet provider? These outbound emails are critical client reports, I want to make sure they are not seen as spam.

I am setting up an ubuntu server, in order to use it with Joomla.
Does someone knows if is possible to use PostFix as SMTP server for Joomla?
If does; would be necessary to install IMAP or POP3, Webmail etc if I just want to send automatics mails via Joomla.

I'm working on configuring a mail server on Ubuntu 8.04 using Postfix 2.5.1 and Courier 0.59.0. I don't want to have to open up specific networks for SMTP relaying, so I want my server to require authenticated SMTP sessions. I'm just confused on how to do this. Here's my main.cf file from Postfix:

It seems like getting this enabled is way more complicated than I expected, assuming I'm not on the wrong path.

I have postfix installed on my computer to let scripts send email. I want to use my isp as the smtp server. In /etc/postfix/main.cf I have told postfix to use gmail as my smtp server using "relayhost = outgoing.verizon.net". However, when I send an email, it gets returned. The full email is included below (my server's address has been replaced with ***.com).

I believe that I need to authenticate to [URL]... from postfix, but I am not sure how to add these directives to the config file.
