On server A we have cyrus-imapd running with spiped listening on
TCP:143. On server B we have postfix-sasl-3.3.0 running with spiped
listening on TCP:143 linked to server A.
On server A saslauthd is configured in rc.conf to use rimap to the
localhost:
saslauthd_flags="-a rimap \
-O localhost" # Use Remote IMAP to authenticat
Postfix is configured to use saslauth to authenticate outgoing senders:
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = no
smtpd_sasl_exceptions_networks =
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
smtpd_sasl_path = smtpd
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_sasl_service = smtp
smtpd_sasl_tls_security_options = $smtpd_sasl_security_options
smtpd_sasl_type = cyrus
But I cannot find any such file named smtpd.conf which, according to
the Postfix documentation, should exist and should contain:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: PLAIN
It appears to me that postfix is directly looking in
/usr/local/etc/sasldb2.db itself and, finding no entries, failing to
authenticate. How do I tell postfix to use the saslauthd daemon
instead?
