Desparately need Postfix/smtpd/sasl on Fedora help

[David A. Long]

OK, I have been pulling my hair out for a week trying to get a Fedora 7
server configured to use Postfix SMTP for relaying mail from remote
clients.  It seems to handle TLS fine when receiving GNHLUG mail.
testsaslauthd reports successful authentication when given appropriate
username/password's.  With a telnet to port 25 I can authenticate my
cleartext (if that's what you want to call it) base64 username/password.

This all worked fine under SUSE, albeit with an (expired) real-world
certificate.  The self-signed certificate I'm using now seems to be
acceptable to GNHLUG, and I repsonded to the evolution prompt to accept
it on my client side.

Under FC7 now though an attempt to send mail to the server for relaying
produces only the following messages:

Oct  8 23:31:09 www postfix/smtpd[3038]: initializing the server-side TLS engine
Oct  8 23:31:09 www postfix/smtpd[3038]: connect from unknown[192.168.1.137]


And then it just hangs until it times out.  I've gone over the postfix
config files a thousand times.  I'm confused by the total lack of an
error message in any log.  Help!
