I'll be the first to admit I'm not even close to an expert on sendmail.
I've just spent hours and hours working on this, so I thought I'd share
my
solution. Hopefully it will save time and trouble for someone else.
My setup:
sendmail 8.12.8, running on Red Hat Linux 8.0 This box is the outgoing
mail server for my home network (which uses the fake domain name
homenet.local).
My goal:
Have my server forward all its outgoing mail to my ISP's SMTP server
(smtp.comcast.net), which requires a username and password.
Below are my relevant configuration files, with some notes on each one.
Here are the active lines from my sendmail.mc:

Note:
-After editing this file, run m4 sendmail.mc > sendmail.cf and then

-If the server doesn't need to accept incoming email, then change the
following line
from..
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl
to..
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
This is my authinfo file:
Authinfo:smtp.comcast.net "U:myusername" "I:myusername" "P:mypa55word"
"R:"
Notes:
- This is a plaintext file, that contains the ISP's mailserver's
password,
so it shouldn't be world-readable.
Here's my access file:
# by default we allow relaying from localhost...
localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY
workstation1.homenet.local RELAY
workstation2.homenet.local RELAY
# Uncomment the line below to disable TLS
# Try_TLS:smtp.comcast.net NO
Note:
- After editing this file, run makemap hash access < access and then
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart
- I found disabling TLS was useful during troubleshooting, as I could
use
ethereal (packet sniffer) to monitor exactly what the servers were
saying
to each other.
Hope this helps,
George Lane
