I don't see how that would help since the 'saslauthd' port is not part of the 'postfix' port. In fact, 'postfix' does not require either SASL or the saslauthd port in order to work. It might be nice if there were an option to install saslauthd, and thereby force the installation of SASL, in the postfix port however. --=20 Gerard gerard@seibercom.net "Yow!!
