Summary: 0002097: `postconf -m` should support the lookup table type of \'hash\'
Description: The lookup table type of \"hash\" is required to make postfix talk to SMTP-Auth enabled MTA as relayhost.

As far as I know, followings are the most popular configurations in main.cf .

smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/opt/csw/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options =

But, currently CSWpostfix does not support \"hash\".
\"hash\" support should be integrated.
Steps To Reproduce:
Additional Information: Jan 4 13:57:32 sv02 postfix/smtp[101543]: [ID 947731 mail.crit] fatal: unsupported dictionary type: hash

-bash-3.00$ /opt/csw/sbin/postconf -m
cidr
dbm
environ
ldap
nis
nisplus
pcre
proxy
regexp
static
unix

In another machine, which support \"hash\", shows:
$ /usr/sbin/postconf -m
btree
cidr
environ
hash
ldap
nis
pcre
proxy
regexp
sdbm
static
tcp

What is required to support this? Would you be able to test it for me if I build you a new version?

> What is required to support this?
Support for Berkeley DB library should be needed.
HOWTO is provided in here.
http://www.postfix.org/DB_README.html [^]

When using postfix as an intranet MTA, I sometimes need to relay mails with external ISP\'s SMTP servers.
In order to use almost all of public SMTP servers in Japan, our postfix must be able to support SMTP-Auth. Hash is easiest way to talk with such servers.

> Would you be able to test it for me if I build you a new version?
Yes.
I will be pleased to test if new version is provided.

Actually this is already supported in the update. I must have been looking at an old system :/

Please check and get back to me.

I\'ve tried to do this, but can\'t figure out to enable it. Do you know how to do it?
