You have to compile sasl support into the sendmail binary to do auth. I have done this two ways, one following the instructions at sendmail.org and another time, I found on google an example of how to do it by modifying the sendmail sources in /usr/src. However, this becomes a problem if you cvsup. Also, you have to maintain an sasl password database in addition to the system one. -Jim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
