Edit your /etc/mail/access file to contain a line AuthInfo:smtp.your-isp.tld "U:your_username" "P:your_password" "M:PLAIN" in this example taking PLAIN is a valid authentification mechanism with your ISP's host. Make sure that the access / access.db files are not world readable, containing that auth data. If you do prefer to use a separate file, then activate FEATURE(`authinfo') in your sendmail.mc and create a map file authinfo with the corresponding data. See http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/sm-812.html#812AUTH for further notes.
