    Hello,

    I seem to be having some issue with saslauthd and postfix on 5.3-R...
    When I try to send mail out, it fails, and puts this in
    /var/log/maillog:

    Jan 4 05:56:17 n00330 postfix/smtpd[8103]: warning: SASL
    authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such
    file or directory
    Jan 4 05:56:17 n00330 postfix/smtpd[8103]: warning: SASL
    authentication failure: Password verification failed

    It's weird, because it was working before, and then I tweaked
    something, and it broke. I've recompiled postfix and
    cyrus-sasl2-saslauthd, to no avail. Make a make deinstall broke
    something along the way?

    I don't even know what to suspect. I think it might be a permissions
    issue, since saslauthd is running -- but I can't be sure. Does this
    sound familiar to anyone?

    - ben
