I'm trying to get a new courier/postgresql setup working and am getting the above error whenever I try to send a test message to a hosteddomain account. Scouring the code in local.c, it seems that this is the authentication service that's failing. I believe, though, that I have Postgresql working properly, correct tables defined and populated and all, and I've confirmed proper access by running 'psql -d courier -U courier -h localhost -p 5432'.

authmodulelist contains "authdaemon", authdaemonrc defines authmodulelist="authcustom authcram authuserdb authldap authpgsql authpam", and authpgsqlrc is properly set up. There are a buch of authdaemond.pgsql daemons running. Yet sending a test message to courier generates this syslog output:

Jul 24 08:41:23 mail2 courieresmtpd: error,relay=::ffff:216.30.67.34,from=<car...@itfreedom.com>,to=<carey@itfreed om.org>: 450 Service temporarily unavailable.

Where should I look next? Is this a courier-postgresql problem or a courier-authdaemon problem? Or am I way off track?

Regards, Carey

ps. relevant config info below.
