    Username and password keeps popping up when users send email.

     

    Postfix, SASL with MySQL

    O/S Debian 3.1 Sarge

    System: 1 Gig Memory, Dual PIII 900

     

    We currently have about 500 email accounts using postfix/mysql and most of
    the time email sends fine without a problem. However we are having an issue
    with username and password prompting users a few times a day when sending
    email.

     

    I have been monitoring the load on the server using top and normally load is
    between 0.02 - 1.65 (I have been told SASL will stop when load above 2.00
    (Can this be increased))

     

    I have also noticed this happened when load was only 0.12 so it maybe some
    maximum connections setting in mysql or sasl.

     

    Does any one know what may cause this.

     

     

    Regards

    Michael Taylor
