Since you're offering.... TLS I got to work just by reading starttls(8) and making sure the keys were in the right place. That doesn't get you SMTP AUTH, though. It's been at least a few weeks since I tried, so I'm afraid I don't remember the details, but I tried installing the Cyrus SASL package without success. That may or may not have been due to my idiocy -- but I figured I'd ask: What's the preferred method of configuring Sendmail to require a password for relaying mail from popular MUAs like Apple Mail? A nudge in the proper direction -- man pages, packages, etc. -- to get me started in the right direction would be most welcome.
