I didn't know about this route of having authenticated
sendmail. It's not mentioned in the handbook:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/SMTP-Auth.html

Are you saying mail/sendmail-sasl implements
exactly the same functionality as rebuilding
the base OS sendmail, as mentioned in the handbook?

Thanks

Anton
