I'm having trouble getting SASL support working. The thing is, when i

because i decided not to use it. Now, it appears that i will require

haven't been able to undo my disabling of it.
Here are (all?) relevant entries from postconf -n
...
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
With the above, AUTH will only be offered after a TLS session is
started. This setting is used to protect plain-text passwords. You can
remove it for testing, but generally is a good thing to have.
Test your connection with openssl's s_client feature - sort of an
encrypted telnet - instead of telnet.
Something like:
# openssl s_client -connect localhost:25 -starttls smtp
should start an encrypted connection.
bingo--thanks for that! I'd completely forgotten that TLS was necessary
*up front*. Everything's fine.
