Question
authentication not enabled | postfix
When sending a test mail from my wordpress newsletter plugin i get the error
AUTH command failed: 503 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled
My system has Ubuntu and postfix
When i try the command it outputs :
/etc/postfix$ postconf | grep smtpd_sasl_auth_enable
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = no
But when looking at my master.cf
i see
# service type private unpriv chroot wakeup maxproc command + args
# (yes) (yes) (yes) (never) (100)

Already tried a reload
Also in the var/log/mail.log i am seeing:
Feb 13 07:06:45 cheapmailing postfix/smtpd[13646]: warning: dict_nis_init: NIS domain name not set - NIS lookups disabled
