Hi all,
I have postfix services working to where I can successfully POP/SMTP.

telnet results:

mail headers showing telnet worked: http://pastebin.com/m7fc5ad86

netstat -nvlpt snapshot:
http://pastebin.com/m55cca09d

The problems arise while trying to SMTP from IMAP clients (such as Roundcube, Outlook with IMAP..). Here is the mail log error:

Here's the postfix config:

Here's the dovecot config:

I'm guessing this might have to do with how dovecot might not be authenticating correctly against the postfix smtp sasl rules, but I'm stymied. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Faisal

Update 20090629: 300 views were appreciated, but this issue was never resolved (pastebin data is now expunged). Will probably abandon Dovecot / Postfix in favor for a different setup.
