Cant Send Email After Installing dkfilter

[coxeh]

Hello,

I have setup an email server using your guide here

http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-domains-postfix-courier-mysql-roundcube-ubuntu-6.06

All was working ok until i installed the dkfilter using your tutorial here

http://www.howtoforge.com/postfix_dkfilter_domain_keys_implementation

I can login and receive emails (recevied emails have a dkfilter header) but i cannot send them. Im getting this error in the mail log


Feb 7 12:12:07 bemail1 postfix/smtpd[8426]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
Feb 7 12:12:07 bemail1 postfix/smtpd[8426]: warning: SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such file or directory
Feb 7 12:12:07 bemail1 postfix/smtpd[8426]: warning: localhost[127.0.0.1]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: generic failure
Feb 7 12:12:07 bemail1 postfix/smtpd[8426]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1]

As you can see from the error this has nothing to do with the dk-milter, it is your SASL server that has died.

As you can see from the error this has nothing to do with the dk-milter, it is your SASL server that has died.

But if i remove all the settings that i added from the dkfiler tutorial, and restart postfix, i can send and receive emails fine.

[topdog]

What version of postfix are you running ? and can i see the config (main.cf)

[topdog]

Sorry My BAD, i thought you were using the dk-milter. Sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase.

Hi,

Well ive been playing with it, an i think i found the error. I had to change the smtp line in my master.cf

here is the line i changed in the master.cf


# Before-filter SMTP server. Receive mail from the network and
# pass it to the content filter on localhost port 10025.
#
#smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
smtp inet n - - - - smtpd
-o smtpd_proxy_filter=127.0.0.1:10025
-o smtpd_client_connection_count_limit=10


I now have the dkfilter header in my outgoing email :D

Thanks for your help anyway topdog
