Hello all. Ok I have a perfect server setup.. My ISP blocks out going emails and i am trying to setup relay but i am stuck at authentication. I added the smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd line to the main.cf
and made the file sasl_passwd in this format

[hostname] username:password
For example:

[smtp.broadband.rogers.com] bob123@rogers.com:hockey
then wrote this command
postmap /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

but the email still sends back to the sender and with same Authentication Required [503]
