One thing worth mentioning. There's a mistake (in my view) in RedHat's 
supplied configuration of saslauthd.

In /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd, they have set
MECH=shadow
with the result that only /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow will be used to 
search for usernames and passwords.

If you use any other mechanism, you will probably want to change this to
MECH=pam
