(easiest??) way. It will build just fine, keeping all FreeBSD extensions. $ cd /usr/ports/mail/sendmail $ make SENDMAIL_WITH_SASL=yes Sendmail will run with your old configuration, but to use the new fatures, you must rebuild it with the new macros. $ less /usr/local/share/sendmail/cf/README And to build your new configuration with SMTP AUTH look into: $ less /usr/local/share/doc/SASL/Sendmail.README kind regards Dirk - Dirk Meyer, Im Grund 4, 34317 Habichtswald, Germany - Tel. +49-5606-6512 - Tel. +49-177-6923813 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
