Is the SMTP server advertising LOGIN after an EHLO?

Can you authenticate with OE5.5, PC-Pine, Eudora?

It should look like similar to this:

Connected to mail.mtds.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.mtds.com ESMTP Postfix
EHLO mtds.com
250-mail.mtds.com
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
250-ETRN
250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
250-XVERP
250 8BITMIME

Have you tried it with

smtpd_sasl_local_domain =

i.e. blank option
