ubuntu mail server settings and /etc/hosts file
- by mbrc
This is my /etc/hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.1.1 ubuntu-server.xx.com ubuntu-server
193.77.xx.xx mail.xx.com mail
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
is this correct configuration for my mail server. I am behind router so i don't know if is ok to use my IP for mail.xx.com and 127.0.0.1 for localhost
problem is that i can receive mail but when i send it i get
Oct 17 21:29:32 ubuntu-server postfix/smtpd[2453]: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed

Cannot find the smtp_sasl_password_maps parameter in main.cf.
Client-side SMTP AUTH cannot work without this parameter!
