Multiple SASL authentication failures.

Customer support forums for Atomic Protector (formerly Atomic Secured Linux). There is no such thing as a bad question here as long as it pertains to using Atomic Protector. Newbies feel free to get help getting started or asking questions that may be obvious. Regular users are asked to be gentle. :-)

Sorry for the waiting, we were investigating this issue.

Every "false" positive we got are from Outlook 2007; postfix/smtpd[3349]: warning: CUSTOMER-IP: SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed: authentication failure

So we asked each of our customer who's using Outlook 2007 to modify their SMTP address from our server name to their domain name.

We got the idea to test that from this old post : https://talk.plesk.com/threads/outlook- ... sue.70571/

Long story short, Plesk issue, not ASL.
