"SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such file or directory"

Running a new install of virtualmin gpl on a newly created centos 7 virtual server.

I’m receiving email ok now, but can’t send mail through the server. In mail log I’m getting:

“SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: No such file or directory”

Any help would be appreciated -

Chris

Howdy,

You may want to verify that the saslauthd service is running.

You can do that by running this command:

service saslauthd restart

After that, does it work properly for you?

Yes, that was it.

Odd, I’ve never had to do that, even with exact same setups, for some reason it just didn’t get started I guess. I have never had to deal with that so I didn’t know I could just restart it - Thanks!
