Bug Description

Binary package hint: update-manager-core

Upgraded from 6.06 LTS (server) to 8.04.3 LTS (server) using "sudo do-release-upgrade"
Affected programs: postfix 2.5.4 and saslauthd 2.1.22

Problem: After upgrade email clients are no longer able to authenticate to send email.

Possible solution: Postfix puts smtpd.conf in '/etc/postfix/sasl/' Cyrus sasl expects it in '/usr/lib/sasl2/'
I added symlink /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf -> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf and email clients can now authenticate
