I'm using postfix to relay all my mail through smtpauth.earthlink.net,
maybe I can add some info.

Agreed, that is exactly what I have.

Acutally, I think Earthlink wants you to use your complete email address,
instead of just username, which is how I have it set up. Also, I have the
FQDN of the SMTP server in there. I think /etc/postfix/sasl/sasl_passwd
should be:
smtpauth.earthlink.net paulf@earthlink.net:paulfspasswd

Here are the sasl packages I have installed:
[root@www sasl]# rpm -qa | grep sasl
cyrus-sasl-2.1.15-10mdk
libsasl2-2.1.15-10mdk
libsasl2-plug-crammd5-2.1.15-10mdk
Also, I think there are some configuration options to Postfix to enable
sasl authentication. If they weren't enabled in your Postfix install, you
may have to re-configure. I installed to my Mandrake box using urpmi, and
the sasl options were included. It may differ depending on where/how you
isntalled Postfix from.
Hope this helps!
