sendmail, sasl, ldap

[Martin Schweizer]

Hello Jon

I'm in a similar situation as you. I play now a long time with this. You have 
to use cyrus-sasl2-saslauthd (is in ports). After the installation man saslauthd 
will explain more details. saslauthd will check the secrets against other 
backbone services (saslsb2, ldap, etc.).
