I set up Postfix+Courier+Roundcube on Ubuntu 12.04, but when I try to send an email with Roundcube, I receive the following error:
/var/log/mail.log :

Any ideas? I feel like I've reached a dead end here.

You defined smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous ( this is also the default). In your roundcube config the line
defines to use ssl. For anonymous ssl connections are rejected you have to provide an username and password for the connection. But you have defined none:
