Hi I have installed the package dovecot-postfix on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: dovecot --version: 2.0.19 postconf -d | grep version: 2.9.6 and receiving email works very fine, but relaying email does not work. I think the problem is that after STARTTLS the authentication is not being executed 250-AUTH PLAIN 250-AUTH=PLAIN which means using telnet returns telnet mx2.wyona.com 587 Trying 50.116.54.197... Connected to node3.wyona.com. Escape character is '^]'. 220 node3.members.linode.com ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) EHLO letscallitevil.com 250-node3.members.linode.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10240000 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN So far I have used dovecot version 1.2.9, which works very fine, but the configuration /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf seems to be very different in the case of dovecot version 2.0.19. I have checked all kind of tutorials for several days now, like for example https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/postfix.html but nothing helped. Any pointers or help is very much appreciated. Thanks Michael
