I am trying to get this to work.

I am running a mailserver in Debian Lenny AMD-64 that uses Postfix driven
virtual mailbox domains stored in a MySQL database, managed by PostfixAdmin
and phpMyAdmin.

I must send my mail through DYNDNS through port 2525 the username and
password for that service does not appear at all in any of my user names.

I have added / merged the data in the Configuring Dovecot SASL but when
testing we see nothing about AUTH when testing it.

Please let me know if I have left something out I am not a complete NUBE but
I am still a bit green.

Thanks.

Use telnet to connect to Postfix and post the output.
