I see. Is your postfix able to access /var/state/saslauthd? It
should be:

        drwxrwx--- 2 cyrus mail 512 Jul 19 04:52 saslauthd

Old cyrus-sasl2 port made the directory with wrong permission, and
postfix couldn't access it. This problem was corrected. I believe
postfix user belongs to mail group, so that postfix can access the
directory.

Oops, I didn't answer your question. If you want to use saslauthd for
plain text password, the correct contents of smtpd.conf should be:

        pwcheck_method: saslauthd

Sincerely,
