    Hi.

    For some reason or the other, SMTP AUTH now all of a sudden works for
    me. Dunno why; maybe it was because I installed the cyrus-imapd
    package?

    Who knows. But I don't understand why SMTP AUTH works. In
    /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf I've got:

    [rootdevel postfix]# cat /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf
    realm: devel.net-attach.de
    pwcheck_method: saslauthd

    What does this mean? I would think, that this means that postfix should
    do authentication using saslauthd. Well, seems like I'm wrong, because
    even when I stop saslauthd (and restart postfix), I can still
    sucessfully do SMTP AUTH.

    Could somebody please explain why SMTP AUTH still works? And how can I
    configure the method postifx + sasl should use to do the AUTH?
