I know about the "@" thing on the FAQ, I mean:
<div class='quote'>On very new operating systems (Fedora Core 5 is confirmed to have this issue) the Cyrus saslauthd version defaults to dropping the "@domain.tld" portion of the username before attempting authentication. This, obviously, won't work. The solution is to add the "-r" flag to the saslauthd command. On Red Hat based systems, additional flags can be added in the "FLAGS=" section of the file /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd. This is an orthogonal issue to the Postfix issues, and will occur whether you use Sendmail or Postfix as your mail server.</div>
but I wonder if I have to add also if I have Centos 4....

That's the symptoms you'd expect to see, if you didn't have saslauthd configured for @domain.tld style accounts...so I'd guess the answer is: Try it and see. ;-)
But you would also see pretty clear indicators in the maillog. It'll look like the user is authenticating with just their name rather than the full name@domain.tld.

Check out the forum guidelines!
Yes :-)
Now it's work with the "-r" flag (after added I rebooted the service).
Thread closed.
:-)
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the server is hanging !!!!
I can see in the process list so many lookup-domain.pl processes !!
can be a trouble about the "-r" option ?!
If i stop postfix now the server is working...
mmmm yes.. I need help :-)

No, has nothing to do with the -r option.
Switch to clamdscan in the Email Messages:Spam and Virus Scanning page. spamc also wouldn't hurt. You'll need to start up the spamassassin daemon and clamd daemons first (there will be a button in the page for the latter, as it requires some extra steps...the spamassassin service can be started in the Webmin:System:Bootup and Shutdown page).

Not solved.... but it seems that if I stop postfix the server is working fine...
