Hi,

I'm using default install of iRedMail and I would like to use SASL or SMTP AUTH.
Mail is working at least with plain text password in my environment but SASL does not seem to be enabled at default.

I could not find the resource in iRedMail docs.
Where or which config file or what kind of setup should I look into it?

Thank you

iRedMail has SMTP AUTH enabled by default.

Thank you for info.

That means SMTP AUTH may not be working because I have the following error in my maillog and I am not able to configure mailer using SMTPAUTH.

What do I need to check?

Not sure why it happened. Amavisd is configured as after-queue content-filter by default, not pre-queue. Did you modify it to act as pre-queue filter?

It's normal. failed login will cause this error message. e.g. incorrect username or password.

Again, SMTP AUTH is enabled by default in iRedMail.

For pre-queue content filter setting, not that I know of... I did edit master.cf file. and main.cf file for smtpd_recipient_restrictions settings.
Should I show you any other config file?

Here is the quote from my other post:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_unknown_sender_domain, reject_unknown_recipient_domain, reject_non_fqdn_sender, reject_non_fqdn_recipient, reject_unlisted_recipient, check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:7777, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031
