I left some things out, to simplify, but maybe they do matter.
The setup will use TLS and the e-mail-address/password combination.
The query I mention sould get the password based on the mail-address,
but since the domain-name gets lost, there is no valid user.

Yes. understood what you were trying to do Koenraad, its just that it
is not the normal way to do it, and most clients don't even pass the
email address when authenticating.

They pass a name and password pair.
If the client is not supplying the domain portion of the email address
for authentication there is no reliable way of getting it.

Actually, the name/password-pair _is_ the e-mail-address and the
e-mail-password, I don't want to manage two pieces of credentials. In
the client (Thunderbird) I set the smtp-authentication to the
e-mail-address and e-mail-password. But on the server only the
"username" gets through, everything after that, including the @, is
lost. In Thunderbird I set the username to "username@xxxxxxxxxxx" and
pam-mysql tries to verify "username".
I have this working fine on another server, but that's running Suse 10.1.
I suspect pam-mysql, but I don't know how to fix this.
Would it be possible to see what postfix sends to pam-mysql ?
