SASL Authentication

I'm currently having a bit of a problem with my VPS running Virtualmin, it's a fresh install and everything seems to be working fine apart from SMTP and sending emails from Mail.app on my mac. I'm getting this in my logs:

Feb 13 11:25:31 fishrod postfix/smtpd[25764]: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed
Feb 13 11:25:31 fishrod postfix/smtpd[25764]: warning: cpc7-lewi13-0-0-cust124.bmly.cable.virginmedia.com[86.14.112.125]: SASL PLAIN authentication failed: authentication failure
Feb 13 11:25:31 fishrod postfix/smtpd[25764]: lost connection after AUTH from cpc7-lewi13-0-0-cust124.bmly.cable.virginmedia.com[86.14.112.125]

I'm running CentOS Linux 5.4 any help would be appreciated a lot!

Thanks, Gav

What do you see if you type "ps auxw | grep saslauth"?

And what is the format of the account name you're trying to log in as? For example, is it user@domain.com?

moskit

did you modify /etc/postfix/main.cf and /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ?
