Postfix snapshot 20051220 provides a plug-in architecture for SASL
authentication. With this, Postfix can support multiple SASL
implementations without source code patches.

Incompatibility with snapshot 20051220
======================================

The Postfix-with-Cyrus-SASL build procedure has changed. You now
need to specify -DUSE_CYRUS_SASL in addition to -DUSE_SASL_AUTH or
else you end up without any Cyrus SASL support. The error messages
are:

    unsupported SASL server implementation: cyrus
    unsupported SASL client implementation: cyrus

Major changes with snapshot 20051220
====================================

Plug-in support for SASL authentication in the SMTP server and in
the SMTP+LMTP client. With this, Postfix can support multiple SASL
implementations without source code patches.  Some distributors may
even make SASL support a run-time linking option, just like they
do with Postfix lookup tables.

Hints and tips for plug-in developers are in the xsasl/README file.

For backwards compatibility the default plug-in type is Cyrus SASL,
so everything should behave like it did before. Some error messages
are slightly different, but these are generally improvements.

The "postconf -a" command shows what plug-in implementations are
available for the SMTP server, and "postconf -A" does the same for
the SMTP+LMTP client.  Plug-in implementations are selected with
the smtpd_sasl_type, smtp_sasl_type and lmtp_sasl_type configuration
parameters.

Other new configuration parameters are smtpd_sasl_path, smtp_sasl_path
and lmtp_sasl_path. These are better left alone; they are introduced
for the convenience of other SASL implementations.
