Which distribution do you use? What's in /etc/apt/sources.list?

hi falko,

Sorry for my late reply! Have been really busy for the last two days!

I'm using Debian Testing (etch)

And this is the contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ etch main
deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ etch main

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main

I always use Sarge, so that may be your problem. However, you can try apt-get update and try to install sasl2-bin again.

Do you think restarting will help?

Maybe you should consider a reinstall, this time with Sarge.
