Hi, everyone

Originally, I used /usr/local/etc/sasldb2 to store accounts/passwords(plain 
text) data,
and used Mozilla Thunderbird as my MUA. I can pass the SASL 
authentication(both smtp and imap) successfully.

After that, I wanted to use MySQL to store accounts/passwords(plain text),
but I got fail of SASL authentication.

I am using FreeBSD 5.2 release, and have complete installed these softwares 
from port:
cyrus-imapd-2.2.6
cyrus-sasl-2.1.19
cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.19
postfix-2.1.4,1 (build with MySQL)

I follow these instructions to set up smtpd.conf
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-questions/2004-April/042847.html
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-March/039296.html

I have been searched and read many documents on mail-listing and google, but 
I still don't
know what I miss @@, and /var/log/maillog doesn't provide enough information 
to me to solve
the problem. I am sure that I have enter correct accounts/passwords.

Please note that it works well with /usr/local/etc/sasldb2, but not MySQL 
 >"<
It seems to me that it doesn't talk to MySQL at all, because I tried
to use incorrect sql_user/sql_passwd in smtpd.conf, it gived me the same log 
in /var/log/maillog

Please give me some hints to fix this problem, I have tried it for several 
weeks, kind of tired,
but I don't want to give up. Thank you in advance.


These are some logs, and configurations:
(the accounts and password are real, you can test it if you want)

I have tried to change auxprop_plugin: mysql and USERNAME='%u@%r' as well.
