Problema atsiranda po courier-authlib atnaujinimo. Sprendimas:

Truputėli privertė pasikankinti :)

    I found nearly the same thing with Ubuntu 6.06:

    chmod 775 /var/run/courier/authdamon

    This was the last part of the solution for getting SASL to work. Thanks a lot!

    Thank you!!
    I updated courier yesterday, and this was just what I needed to get things running again :-)

    - running FreeBSD 6.3 with Postfix

    Another possibility is not to use chmod, but instead, add the postfix user (in my case postfix) to the group that owns the /var/run/courier/authdamon dir (in my case group daemon)

    Thank you for the tip. :-)

    Thanks, this has helped me twice already, and will help me again next time I update courier-authlib… I’ll be trying the group addition for the postfix user, so that might be a more permanent fix…
