Dear members,
I configured my server with email user format as “user@domain.com” and enabled ssl etc.
Now, my user is not being authenticated with user@domain.com user but it works if i use virtual host account admin e.g. if i have a domain xyz.com and its admin user is xyz, then i can use xyz and its password in outlook smtp settings.
root@server:~# ps -ax|grep sasl
