For some days I've been trying to get postfix working with sasl on my 
se/30 with 1.5.3.

I first decided to skip packages since I didn't know if sasl support 
was compiled in the binaries (is there any way to find that info 
without installing and look at the build info in 
/var/db/pkg/[package]?). I also thought that some compiling experience 
would do me good, though I had to compromise and use the precompiled 
cyrus-sasl-1.5.27nb3.

Now I have postfix running fine as long as sasl isn't enabled in 
main.cf, but if it's on i get 'fatal: no SASL authentication 
mechanisms' in /var/log/maillog as soon as I try to use the se as a 
smtp-server. I've tried everything I could find on the net but nothing 
has helped, so I'm begining to think that I'm in a dead end and wonder 
if anyone has been successful in getting postfix working with sasl?
