Hal,
You are the man!! That was exactly what I needed. It works like a charm. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I have been fighting this thing for over a week. You know, it all sounded so simple, and I was able to get everything else working pretty easily until I got to the Sendmail part of this project. Hal, I owe you one! Oh, and FYI: Southwestern Bell (sbcglobal) does in fact require authentication to relay through their SMTP servers at least through their DSL Customer network.
Thanks again!

Hal,
Jeff,
Cool!! You got me one step closer. I am looking at the sendmail.mc file now, but I do not see where I can pass authentication information to my provider's SMTP Server. I see several entries that look promising, but I am unsure of the syntax required. Any help is greatly appreciated.
First verify that SBC requires authentication at all. I am on Roadrunner, and they do not require it since I am verifiably on their network. If you still require authentication, I found this which appears to walk you through what is necessary.
