If the -X file does not give you enoughinformation to solve your problem, try
increasing the log level to 13 as we described earlier, and examine your logs for additional
information:
# ../../obj.*/sendmail/sendmail -Ctest.cf -X/tmp/auth.log -bD -OLogLevel=13
5.1.3 SASL and Your mc File
V8.10 sendmail and later offer macros for your mc configuration file that help with
your SASL settings. We will cover them soon, but first we must describe two concepts
central to SASL and its use: authorization and authentication.
Authorization refers to a user??™s permission to perform certain actions. One form of
authorization, for example, might be to allow a user to relay mail through your mail
hub machine. In general, authorization is associated with a user??™s identifier (userid),
which may be the username or something more complex.
Authentication refers to the validation of a user or machine??™s identity. One form of
authentication, for example, might be the recognition that a laptop is a companyowned
machine. Authentication is communicated inside credentials (more on this
soon) and is associated with a client??™s identifier (authid).
5.1.3.1 Your server requires AUTH
Your server can require AUTH for all connections only if it is not connected to the
Internet for inbound email.
