Can't make Dovecot communicate with Postfix using SASL (warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: No such file or directory)
- by Fred Rocha
Solved. I will leave this as a reference to other people, as I have seen this error reported often enough on line.
I had to change the path
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth
in my
/etc/postfix/main.cf
to relative, instead of absolute. This is because in Debian Postfix runs chrooted (and how does this affect the path structure?! Anyone?)
