I added "U:smmsp" and "M:PLAIN" to my /etc/mail/auth/client-info file, but
that did not change anything. When I left out the square brackets around the
server name in that file, I got another error message in /val/log/maillog:

Could you explain this a bit further, please? I am not clear on how this works.
Setting up SSL is done by compiling sendmail with sasl, isn't it? Or is there 
something else to do? Also, the term "plain method" confuses me: This does
not refer to whether or not you are using ssl?

Sorry to bother you with all these questions.

Christopher
