What else I need to fix this difficult sending mail problem?
In case you're talking about your home machine and that I understood what you want to do.
Unless your only interest is to learn sendmail configuration I would use a tool like msmtp (you will find it on slackbuilds.org) instead of using the smart host sendmail feature.
With msmtp you'll be able to use multiple external smtp servers and don't care about having a static IP a FQDN and a site CA (to avoid your emails go to SPAM).
Problem is solved! I was trying to use it like a server. Then I tried to use like a client only and did another sendmail-slackware.mc for a client mode. Then I belive a changed line server for client in sendmail-slackware.mc edition was the point.
define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p y')dnl
Thanks a lot, Kustom42, eloi but specially Mike and TB0ne in this hard task!
