I found all i needed on the net but it wasn't all in one place.
Here's some of what I did.
In /etc/make.conf
# add alternate port (smtps) for sendmail
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS+=3D -D_FFR_SMTP_SSL
and rebuild the world (or if you're smarter than me you can rebuild only =
the sendmail part).
In your /etc/mail/${hostname}.sendmail.mc, define the service itself.
The first part is to define the certificates, they are used for both =
STARTTLS and smtps. There are plenty of sites that'll tell you how to =
generate those. Mine is a bit unusual as I don't use a self-signed =
certificate, I'm using a different CA as root. It's easiest, but costs =
money, to use a "real" root CA and avoid the hassle of configuring =
outlook/windows to trust a new root certificate.
dnl add STARTTLS support
define(`CERT_DIR', `MAIL_SETTINGS_DIR`'certs')dnl
define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl
define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/mitelroot_cert.pem')dnl
define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/cert.pem')dnl
define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/priv_key.pem')dnl
define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/cert.pem')dnl
define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/priv_key.pem')dnl
then add support on the smtps port...
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=3Dsmtps,Addr=3D{put_your_addr_here}, Name=3DTLSMTA, =
M=3Ds')dnl smtp over TLS on port 465
then do the standard make and make restart thingie to restart sendmail
try it out and see what fails (it helps to bump sendmail logging to 64).
