So far everything seemed to work. I can read my mail and I can send mail from the server itself. But when I try to send e-mail from my laptop when using my mailserver as smtp server it won't send the e-mail. As a client I am using Thunderbird 1.0.6 smtp settings are: server: fstaals.net port: 25 user: frank security: TLS if available when sending an e-mail I am prompted for my password, but when I enter it my send is denied. At my server I can see this: Sept 5 18:09:36 FStaals sendmail[67103] : no user in db Sept 5 18:09:36 FStaals sendmail[67103] : no secret in database the weird thing is that it does accept my user and pass when I try to read my mail from the server. And in /usr/local/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf is set it should use my systems password file: root@FStaals# cat /usr/local/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf pwcheck_method: saslauthd The problem is the same when connecting on the smtps port ( 465 ) with thunderbird. What should I do now ? My user does exist on the sytem, but I don't know why imap-uw // Sasl recognises it when I try reading my mail but Sendmail // Sasl doesn't when trying to send a message. What am I doing wrong ? -- -Frank Staals
