I'm just trying to auth with local users, using one domain. Running testsaslauuthd reports success for both smtp and imap: user@linux-8hun:~> testsaslauthd -u user -p password -s smtp 0: OK "Success." user@linux-8hun:~> testsaslauthd -u user -p password -s imap 0: OK "Success."
Excellent, always a good thing to check.
