Postfix+TLS+SASL

Hello all,

I have postfix with tls and sasl2.
I am trying to use KMail with TLS + DIGEST-MD5 authentication set to send 
emails using localhost as mailserver. I did set:

saslpasswd2 -a postfix -u aeternal.net -c corwin

it created sasldb2.db but it shows in logfile following:

Jan 26 14:40:02 amber saslpasswd2: setpass succeeded for corwin
Jan 26 14:40:02 amber saslpasswd2: Couldn't update db

but sasldblistusers2 shows following:
corwin at aeternal.net: userPassword

That is my first question: why I see that Couldn't update db in logfile?

Second one is why I can't send emails using KMail with TLS+DIGEST-MD5..

Messages in logfile are:
Jan 26 14:52:23 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
Jan 26 14:52:23 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: setting up TLS connection from 
localhost[127.0.0.1]
Jan 26 14:52:24 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: TLS connection established from 
localhost[127.0.0.1]: TLSv1 with cipher RC4-MD5 (128/128 bits)
Jan 26 14:52:24 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: warning: SASL authentication 
failure: no user in db
Jan 26 14:52:24 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: warning: SASL authentication 
failure: client response doesn't match what we generated
Jan 26 14:52:24 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: warning: localhost[127.0.0.1]: 
SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed
Jan 26 14:52:25 amber postfix/smtpd[16912]: disconnect from 
localhost[127.0.0.1]

Please kindly help me on this one..thank you
