Here's the salient portion of the 'Returned Mail' message:
----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to stpete.freedomscientific.com.:
>>> MAIL From:<janina at cantata.rednote.net> AUTH=<>
<<< 501 Syntax error - badly formatted address
501 5.6.0 Data format error
First of all, is this garbled? Should the 'auth=' show up on the
same line as the 'From:'? Or is this just an artifact of the error
handler?
Second, what controls the auth= field? How would I even go about
stripping this empty field? Better still, how do I set it to reflect
a true value?
I'm perplexed by the authentication docs on this point. They seem to
refer to this variable, but I don't see where/how it's defined for
sendmail.
PS: I am using cyrus sasl and starttls to authenticate mail from my
portable while I'm on the road. I believe it's working correctly.
