Thanks! However, could you please give me some more specific directions? Today my sendmail.mc file looks like this:

MAILER(smtp)

Should I just replace the TRUST/SASL lines with:

TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `LOGIN PLAIN')dnl

Don't want to try it at the moment without knowing more since it is a live system.


Yes, that's correct (although I'd leave in CRAM-MD5 since mozilla et. al. support it nicely).

Once you save the *.mc file, do this to build a proper sendmail.cf,
update all your database configs, install and restart sendmail:

cd /etc/mail
make all install restart

This should take only about 3 seconds and will give you console feedback
so watch for any errors in syntax. Then:

tail /var/log/maillog

So you can verify that everything started up properly.

Please note that I use 5.x (but same version of sendmail as you) so it
is possible that the exact steps I outline above will be slightly
different on a 4.x system (sorry but I don't know for sure -- been so
long since I used 4.x). You can always check the Makefile in /etc/mail
to verify this.

The basic point is that you merely need to update your *.mc, rebuild it
into a proper *.cf, install and restart sendmail.

Cheers,

EB
