I've tried every tutorial that I can get my hands on and I just can't seem to grasp the configuration of dovecot. These are the errors that I get when starting the service and they're the same entries in the log files. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?

Running debian 6, I believe I've enabled everything correctly, followed various guides to double check as I've been working on this for 3 days now. I've tested both dovecot and postfix with telnet and they work as best as I can tell, however I'm not getting the expected SASL support response when using smtp.

I am attempting to set up an email server using Postfix and Dovecot. Both services are starting fine, but when I log into Squirrelmail to send a test email it won't send, and the response from server error is blank. I tried setting up Thunderbird for the test account, and Thunderbird could not detect the server settings, so I tried to put them in manually, and it still wouldn't work.
