I am testing (without success so far) using our companies smtp server as our relay host. I am running here at home 10.1 x86_64 w/ stock postfix (but also tried the snapshot). I have been searching for 2 days and haven't found my problem. As a test, I tried to set it up for gmail and am having the same problem. I have tested the authentication and know it works on a different relayhost, but changing the sasl_passwd file and enabling smtp_use_tls = yes and adding the port number 465 to the relayhost still doesn't work. Any ideas to get the SuSE postfix to work with smtp.gmail.com? When I get that one working I'm sure I can get the companies going.
