Hi Chris

OK, I came across two more things which I had to add - I'll do a complete 
howto, but this is just to document them for now:

1) The configure for sasl needed a reference to ldap:
--with-rc4 --with-dblib=berkeley     --enable-anon     --enable-cram
--enable-digest --enable-plain     --enable-login     --enable-ntlm 
--with-ldap=/usr/local

2)  The /etc/saslauthd.conf needed other bits for the ldap - and this is 
probably just specific to my set up:
ldap_bind_dn: cn=Manager,dc=mail,dc=example,dc=com
ldap_bind_pw: mypassword
ldap_search_base: dc=mail,dc=example,dc=com


So, I'm now at the point where:

1. I can run 'testsaslauthd -u username -p password' and I get an OK - 
Succeeded
2. I disable tls and telnet to the server and I get AUTH LOGIN PLAIN 
DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5

However, if I then do a:

[root]# printf 'username\0username\0password' | mmencode
dGVzdAB0ZXN0AHRlc3RwYXNz

.. and telnet to the server, do the following, I get an error

S: 220 mail.example.com ESMTP Postfix
C: EHLO example.com
S: 250-mail.example.com
S: 250-PIPELINING
S: 250-SIZE 10240000
S: 250-VRFY
S: 250-ETRN
S: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
S: 250-AUTH=LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5
S: 250-XVERP
S: 250 8BITMIME
C: AUTH PLAIN dGVzdAB0ZXN0AHRlc3RwYXNz
S: 535 Error: authentication failed

All of the correct switches are in main.cf for sasl that you have speccified

The username contains the domain name and tld, so  smtpd_sasl_local_domain = 
$myhostname is omitted from main.cf

I really cannot work out what the problem is, unless, of course, the problem 
is that postfix is pulling apart the username and striping out the domain 
name and tld name

Best
Buzz
