Sorry, I'm still having problems.
I'm running sendmail on Fedora Core 2, the version is 8.12.11-4.6 for i386.
I added the line:
Code:
AuthInfo:smtp.domain.com "U:smmsp" "I:user" "P:password"
I've tried using both username and
username@domain.com for Identity field. Used username in this example.
I make the access.db map and restart sendmail like so:
Code:
[root@localhost mail]# makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access
[root@localhost mail]# /etc/init.d/sendmail restart
Shutting down sendmail: [ OK ]
Shutting down sm-client: [ OK ]
Starting sendmail: [ OK ]
Starting sm-client: [ OK ]
Then I tested out sendmail using the following mail command:
Which resulted in me receiving this returned message:
Code:

I also thought that perhaps the SMART_HOST line from sendmail.mc had to be changed as the original poster did. (This is actually what I tried first). This method results in no returned message.. but the message doesn't get through either. I have also tried different adding thing for Realm and Mechanism tokens but still get a similar return message. I will try the method listed here
http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html#smtpclient which is basically Pete M's method for pre 8.12 with a couple additions to the sendmail.mc file. I will also perhaps try another smtp server I have to see if results are different.
