Strange that you've got authdaemond in there... I'm wondering if that's 
conflicting. I'd pull it out and recompile.

However in my virtual systems I usually slave sasl off Courier because 
sasl seems to be a moving target with pam, pam_mysql, etc. If you want 
to try using authdaemond before you recompile try this config.

/etc/sasl2/smtpd.conf
pwcheck_method: authdaemond
log_level: 3
mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
authdaemond_path:/var/lib/courier/authdaemon/socket

This of course assumes that you have Courier-authlib up and working.

In the realm of wild ass guesses have you changed or added a firewall 
recently? Firewalls that inspect and protect protocols usually break 
smtp-auth. On a Cisco Pix you'll need to set smtp fixup or something 
like that.
