I've been playing with email server on my B3 and struggling a wee bit. I've been following through some of the info on Postfix available on line and using it to try and enable email relay for my phone.
http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick ... rvers.html
I've taken the smtp settings listed there:
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options =
and added them to my main.cf restarted my postfix server, just to be sure all my changes are loaded. I tried to login to my server using telnet and when I tried to login I got told authentication was not enabled.
AUTH LOGIN
503 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled
Can anybody maybe point me as to why login is disabled?

Re: Can't connect to mail server on b3
Just to be sure, does everything work as expected when you set everything back to defaults?
Re: Can't connect to mail server on b3
No I'm afraid not
Web mail probably works but would rather use IMAP to my phone if I can figure it out.
