Hey Remko, Good catch! You were right that postfix didn't have access to the database. But this is still bizarre.... now when I do the login, it doesn't report that it can't access the database, but states that there are no users in the database. Jul 18 12:40:55 www postfix/smtpd[21129]: warning: SASL authentication failure: no user in db Jul 18 12:40:55 www postfix/smtpd[21129]: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed I am able to do a sasldblistusers2 and see all the entries in the file, so I know that they are there, and I believe that postfix is hitting the correct file because the error changed as soon as I changed the database's group to the same as postfix and gave it read access. *sigh*,,, I feel like I am so close, but just can't find the correct switch to throw. Thanks so much for your help with this!!
