External Mail clients can't send after upgrade

Hey guys.

First off, I think you guys should run a report of all the users that post the most on this forum. I bet i'm up there.

LOL

But anyways, to my problem... I just upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04 ubuntu and now I can't send mail from my external clients. I have them using authentication but still no luck. Is there anything that I need to enable or anything in one of the config files that would of been re-written?

Thanks

Please redo the SASL authentification setup steps from the perfect setup for ubuntu 8.04

Here is my mail.log

Code:

Apr 28 12:35:30 myserver postfix/smtpd[2259]: warning: 000.000.000.000: address not listed for hostname ntsrvr01.montvilleschools.org

Apr 28 12:35:30 myserver postfix/smtpd[2259]: connect from unknown[000.000.000.000]

Apr 28 12:35:30 myserver postfix/smtpd[2259]: warning: SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: Permission denied

Apr 28 12:35:30 myserver postfix/smtpd[2259]: warning: unknown[000.000.000.000]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: generic failure

Apr 28 12:35:30 myserver postfix/smtpd[2259]: disconnect from unknown[000.000.000.000]

Please keep in mind I changed my ip address to 000.000.000.000 for privacy.

Okay, Fixed it.

Run the following:

Code:

adduser postfix sasl

/etc/init.d/postfix restart

Thanks!
