The mail client is trying to auth using a MD5 MECH. This is by default
configured in sendmail.mc, with fallback to PLAIN or LOGIN. It is ok to
ignore the maillog messages if SMTP AUTH works though. If you need
DIGEST-MD5 or CRAM-MD5 auth mechs for your clients then you'll have to
setup the sasldb2 and change the Sendmail.conf file.
