Thanks Sherzod that helped! Finally have the authentication working properly
now.

The only thing I'd like to have now is the following. The mail server has
multiple virtual domains. Using virtual domain files certain mail addresses
are redirected to the right system user. Some users can have multiple mail
addresses routed to them. I have a few mail addresses per domain routed to
my own user account for example.

What I'd like to have is some way to check in the acl_smtp_mail part whether
the mail from part of the mail 'belongs' to me. So if I'm logged in as theo
and my user only has admin@??? assigned to me (in a file called
domain.com it has 'admin : theo@localhost') I want to reject the mail when I
would try and send it from any address but admin@???. And if I would
have multiple addresses routed to me on multiple domains I should be able to
send a mail from any of them. How would I make such a check?

Thanks,
Theo
