PostFix, SASL and MailScanner 4.23-11

[Jay Farschman]

Hello,

  I've built a server with PostFix and SASL for authorization.  It quite
well.  It authenticates me before allowing me to send email.

  I then loaded MailScanner following the How-to at
http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailscanner/install/postfix.shtml which is
pretty straight forward.  When I start MailScanner SASL is no longer able
to authenticate me.  My email client (Outlook Express) displays the
sypmtom asking me to re-enter the password.

  Anyone see something like this before?
