I took a look at that, but I don't think that is what I want... perhaps null client is not the correct terminology! In this case, null client seems to be when the server sends an email it gets delivered back to the server (to a different address, but still on the same server). Perhaps my understanding of null client needs to be improved. What I am trying to do, is get postfix (running on centos-server) to connect to a completely different server (mail-server). I believe it is smtp and sasl that needs to used, but I am not not 100% sure about that. In order for postfix/centos-server to connect to mail-server, it needs to authenticate with a username and password. I do not know how to tell postfix/centos-server where to put this username and password, and I do not know how to tell postfix/centos-server that it needs to use them to authenticate with mail-server. There is obviously a step I am missing or not understanding, but I just can't seem to figure out what I need to do to get it to work. Thanks

But, how do I get it to send a username and password to authenticate on that different server? Thanks
