Not a recipe but the needed information is given by 'man postconf(5)'.
The Postfix distribution and web site also contain SASL and TLS
READMEs.  Those have been there for a couple of years IIRC.  The
Debian package "just worked" sometime ago as below.

,----[ postconf mail_version;postconf -n|egrep'smtpd_(sasl|tls|sender_log)' ]
mail_version = 2.1.4
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
smtpd_sender_login_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sender-login-maps
smtpd_tls_CApath = /etc/ssl/certs
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/server.pem
smtpd_tls_loglevel = 0

The LHS of the sender-login-maps are authorized sender addresses, only
the authenticated user on the RHS is authorized to use that address.
