Hi,

There's few steps that need to be taken...first create (if you not have
already) a file called smtp.conf in /usr/local/lib/sasl/ cantaining the sasl
AUTH method that postfix will use...eg. pwcheck_method: sasldb.Next you will
need to make postfix aware of SASL.Open main.cf with your favorite editor and
enable sasl, eg. smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes

For more options see sample-auth.cf in postfix directory...once that done
reload postfix and try telneting to port 25,after EHLO you should see the AUTH
line with list of supported mechanisms...Hope this helps.

Regards,

Paul B.
