Hi,

I'm using dovecot for SASL authentication:

smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
    permit_mynetworks
    permit_sasl_authenticated
    reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth-client

Now if for whatever reason dovecot is not running, smtpd will also
refuse to work, complaining "fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms".
I would much prefer it to fall back to "smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = no" in
that case, so that mail for local recipients can still be received. Is
this possible?

Cheers,
Hagen
