i believe that i already followed what you have written above
but additionally  dovecot setting  mentioned below.

smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth

what type of packages do i want.

i could not find package postfix-tls

so what i installed is posfix and dovecot-imap
since i am using dovecot SASL i didnt install other packages except
the 2 above and postfix-tls did not found.
