Still seeing > those messages. ---- I don't use sasldb but a check of the man page for saslauthd shows... sasldb (All platforms) Authenticate against the SASL authentication database. Note that this is probabally not what you want to be using, and is even disabled at compile-time by default. If you want to use sasldb with the SASL library, you probably want to use the pwcheck_method of "auxprop" along with the sasldb auxprop plugin instead.
