Smile Horde Imp Postfix SASL


I have just setup a webmail service for my company. Everything works great, it connects to the incoming mailserver and displays the user's mail. It also allows users to connect to our outgoing mailserver and send out mail, as long as they are connected with an ip allowed by the my networks list in /etc/postfix/main.cf However, this is webmail of course and users would not want to have to allows check it from their home connection, they should be able to check it no matter what network they are on. I have SASL auth setup on the outgoing mailserver as well as the my networks verification, however horde/imp does not seem to send the username and password for a connection to an smtp server, is there anyway to turn this on? or is there a better way to validate users connection to an smtp server using horde/imp?

nevermind i got it, thanks anyways: for anyone else who runs into this problem:

make sure you have sasl setup correctly on your outgoing mail server, and allowing sasl_authenticated users, and then on your webmail box:

pico /var/www/html/horde/config/horde.php

look for the section that says:
// An array holding any parameters that the Mail object will need to
// function correctly. For sendmail, this is mainly the sendmail_path
// option; SMTP requires at least a server and a port (if nonstandard).
// SMTP authentication can be enabled by setting the 'auth' parameter
// to true.
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array();

and just under that last line add the line:

$conf['mailer']['params']['auth'] = true;

that worked for me, webmail now uses sasl auth setup on my outgoing mailserver
