I have followed the guides on setting up postfix relay to my account at 
network solutions.

I added these to main.cf:

inet_interfaces = localhost

relayhost = [mail.mydomain.com]:587

smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_password
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/pki/tls/certs/sendmail.pem

The username and password are correct, and all these options work fine 
from thunderbird on a windows box in my local network.

I get no errors on postfix restart, but when I try to send an email from 
the centos box, I get this:

Apr 26 17:00:33 host postfix/smtp[10627]: C9C1D80075: 
to=<campbell at somedomain.com>, 
relay=mail.mydomain.com[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]:587, delay=0.87, 
delays=0.08/0.02/0.72/0.04, dsn=5.0.0, status=bounced (host 
mail.mydomain.com[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] said: 503 you must authenticate first 
(#5.5.1) (in reply to MAIL FROM command))

Why is tls not authenticating?

Under centos 5 I used sendmail, and it all worked just fine.
