I'm adding DKIM to my postfix installation and have /etc/opendkim.conf

setup about authenticating outbound mail; it may be there and I don't
recognize it for what it is.
By "set alpine to use authentication," do you mean "have alpine send
mail via an authenticated connection rather than just dumping to
sendmail"?
If so, then something like this works:
smtp-server=mail.appl-ecosys.com:587/user=rshepard/tls
The hostname, port, and security protocols may need adjusting,
depending on your setup. (If your mail server isn't listening on port
587, you may want to look it up.) If you're using straight SSL, that
directive might look like this:
smtp-server=mail.appl-ecosys.com:465/user=rshepard/ssl
This all assumes, of course, that your mail server has already been
configured to handle user authentication...
