Re: [SLUG] New Earthlink SMTP Procedures

In /etc/postfix/main.cf:
    smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
    smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

In /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd, you need an entry like:
    earthlink.net paulf:paulfspasswd

And then don't forget to hash sasl_passwd:
    postmap hash:sasl_passwd

One thing I'm not sure about - I don't know if, in sasl_passwd, you
need earthlink.net as the hostname (since your mail's being routed
that way), or if you need to specify a wildcard instead to cover all
destinations.

Also, did you get sasl libraries in addition to postfix-tls? I have:
ii libsasl-digest 1.5.27-3 DIGEST-MD5 module for SASL
ii libsasl-gssapi 1.5.24-15 Pluggable Authentication Modules for SASL
ii libsasl-module 1.5.27-3 Basic Pluggable Authentication
Modules for SASL
ii libsasl2 2.1.2-2 Authentication abstraction library.
ii libsasl7 1.5.27-3 Authentication abstraction library.
