[REPOST ALERT: I posted a similar message from a different address that seems to not have gone thru, even though it is subscribed so trying again.] I hope someone might have an example *.mc file that allows smtp authentication as required by pacbell dsl. I've prowled the material in /usr/share/sendmail-cf/README regarding this topic but wasn't able to devine out the required lines for *.mc. I've had a non authenticating setup for a year or two and have become a self proclaimed expert at setting up the various releases of sendmail for my needs with that setup. Any thing more complex is beyond my reach at the moment. I do want my local sendmail running so suggestions that involve ditching sendmail for some other technique won't really be appropriate. I've researched the messages on comp.mail.sendmail too and see this has been beaten to death there, so most answeres currently are your basic RTFM. I need some examples to work from. The examples in the README are not easily translateable to *mc lines. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
