Install cyrus-sasl from ports. Recompile sendmail linking it to the sasl port.
You can modify /etc/make.conf to add the correct linking to sasl for sendmail
so that the next time you 'buildworld' it'll do the right thing:

(Assuming SASL2):

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2

Modify Cyrus SASL settings to match your environment.
