I'm= on Fbsd4.8 with the current Sendmail 8.12.8. I havent used pop and smtp = on my server in 4 years now so none of my old information or configurations= work anymore. =3D/ Hmmm... Don't know precisely about pop before sendmail, but setting up sendmail so that it requires authentication before it will relay a message from a "foreign" location is quite do-able, and can easily be integrated with the standard system sendmail. Probably the easiest way to get going is to follow the instructions at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html The line: TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')dnl in the sendmail.mc will allow most widely used MUA's that speak SMTP to the mail server to authenticate before sending a message, although working out exactly which buttons to press and which checkboxes to check in the client is another problem. You will need to create real user accounts for each person, and configure the MUA to supply the password for that account to the server. I know first hand that this works with the Mozilla mail client and with Microsoft Outlook Express.
