To your first error: Add the line:

mail.server-domain.top

at the end of the file /etc/postfix/local-host-names and restart postfix.

To your sasl error:

Did you get an error when you restart the sasl auth daemon?

No errors when saslauthd is starting

I found an bloddy config mistake:

main.cf configuration error: mailbox_size_limit is smaller than message_size_limit

I've set up the mailbox_size_limit more than message_size_limit and now I'm receivng all the lost mail:-)


What I don't now: Were can I edit message_size_limit?

What's the output of

ps aux|grep saslauthd

?
Which distribution do you use?

You can set it in /etc/postfix/main.cf. If it isn't set there, Postfix takes the default values that you can see when you run

postconf -d

Debian3.1

postconf -d

I've added message_size_limit = 1024 in /etc/postfix/main.cf restarted postfix and then postconf -d|less but whis no change.

This sets the message size limit to 1024 bytes... I guess you mean 10240000 (10MB)?

postconf -d

always shows the default settings. If you want to see your current settings, run

postconf -n

Did you do the Postfix/saslauthd configuration as described here? http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_debian_sarge_p4

No, that should be smal for some tests.

postconf -d

always shows the default settings. If you want to see your current settings, run

postconf -n

ok

PLease ask your ISP if they block port 25. Many ISP do that!
