I've been using the recipe mentioned in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/SMTP-Auth.html for a number of years. Just recently, following the openssl bug, I've heard that the alternative to the handbook route is port mail/sendmail-sasl. I haven't tried that port, but it seems the differences are potentially only due to the different versions of sendmail and openssl in base and in ports. I wonder if mail/sendmail-sasl should be mentioned in the same section as an alternative? Or perhaps there is a reason why mail/sendmail-sasl is not recommended in the handbook? Anton
