Hello all,
I've been googling my brains out since yesterday looking for up-to-date
information on this matter, and have found information that is anywhere from
15 to 5 years old. I'd really like some information that much more up to date
on the subject. Specifically configuring Sendmail SMTP authentication (_no
smart host stuff_).
I wrote this article years ago:
https://www.madboa.com/geek/sendmail-auth/
The configuration outlined there is essentially unchanged today. I
have it running on a CentOS 7 machine with sendmail 8.14.
The only real change is the SOCKETDIR setting in
/etc/sysconfig/saslauthd, which is now /run/saslauthd (rather than
/var/run/saslauthd). And, of course, I use systemctl rather than
chkconfig to control boot-time behavior.
The trickier bit for me was stopping and restarting the whole SMTP
toolchain, which includes spamassassin, clavav, and opendmarc. Below
my .sig, I've included the shell script I use for that.
