Solved. Apparently the Hotmail (which provide Sympatico e-mail 
service)'s SMTP server misbehaved (a Microsoft server 
misbehaved? Really?), but I managed set postfix to get around it 
by tell postfix not to use "login" mechanism in SASL, using this 
configuration:
smtp_sasl_mechanism_filter=!login, static:rest

Well, another reason not to use Sympatico. I would already move 
away from Sympatico if I am not worry about being put into 
second tier by Bell when Bell has network issues.
