    Hi freebsd-net@ folk.
    I've been having problems trying to simultaneously configure my 4.9
    home client gateway & my remote 24/7 server to provide an Auth +
    SASL outgoing sendmail channel. My fault not FreeBSD's but I'm
    asking for help. One problem is I dont have a known good server
    or client to test the other half against. Another problem is too
    many options - each end :-)

    I'd much appreciate if some kind volunteer could either:
     A) Give me a temporary account for my sendmail client on their server
            (not even a login, I've got plenty of those thanks, just a
            `proper' SASL + Auth + Sendmail, (& it's easy to check I'm
            not a spammer seeking a relay, hit Google with my name & you'll see
            what I'm known for, better or worse :-)
    or B) I give you a temporary account on my half baked server,
            you point your client at it, wait for it to blow, & tell
            me what I've got wrong (Yes I can give you a full login so
            you can look yourself if you want.)
    Whichever, if either or both I'm offered please :-)

    I've read lots of docs, not restricted to (but just listing some)
            /usr/share/sendmail/cf/README
            http://docs.snake.de/smtp-auth.html
            http://home.leo.org/~barner/freebsd/articles/mailsetup/article.html
            http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/cyrus/sysadmin.html
            http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html
    & tried SASL2 & then SASL1,
    Ive tried SASL passwords & direct /etc/passwd type.
    I think I've tried most or all of
            ports/security/ cyrus-sasl cyrus-sasl2 cyrus-sasl2-saslauthd
    but I think not yet
            mail/sendmail-sasl

    My background .m4 files (both ends) are mastered from
     http://berklix.org/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/src/jhs/etc/sendmail/common.cpp

    My current error report is server end: AUTH warning: no mechanisms
    >From contrib/sendmail/src/srvrsmtp.c:3992
    I have all of
     /usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf -> ../../../site/usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf
     /usr/local/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf -> ../../../../site/usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf
     /usr/local/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf -> ../../../../site/usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf
    Are symbolic links acceptable ?
    Can Sendmail.conf contain comment lines beginning with hash char ?

    Any help appreciated, please ! Thanks !
