It looks like the server upstream, vc.point.ne.jp is unavailable, or otherwise not responding. I would try to ping the IP address of that server. If that succeeds, try to telnet on port 25 (telnet host 25) and type ehlo once connected. You should see a list of features on that server, including whether or not Authentication is available. In regards to the AuthInfo format, that looks right from my sendmail knowledge, but I've never used it, as I run a completely separate mail server, not a relay. I've forwarded this message, along with the original to the freebsd-questions list for google's sake.
