SMTP AUTH with SMART_HOST Client only??

ADSL support has upset my apple cart as far as outgoing SMTP
mail is concerned to my regular smart_relay ISP where my mailboxes
are located..

Fetching mail no problem using getmail connected as dial-up
or ADSL.. Sending mail no problem, dial-up, but via ADSL I've run
into the SMTP AUTH problem used by Verizon's outgoing smtp server..
Have fetched at least ten HOWTO's, that are mainly addressed to
server or combination server/client support.. I'm bogged down.

I need some input as to what has worked for others, rather
than try so many.. Slackware comes bundled with Sendmail 8.13.X which
I can use but find Sendmail 8.11.4 is better for my use even though
it's not as "secure." I've never had a problem with 8.11.4, running
as a single user system, rather than a server.. Knock on wood, eh?
One first query is; I wonder if Cyrus-sasl is needed as a client only,
etc.. (I might be using Slackware 10.2, 2.4.31 if that helps.)

TIA and Happy Holidays to all..

Greetings and thanks for the input.. That thread was very helpful as
well as another similar one found at LinuxQuestions.org.. Once I was able to
put aside many of them that had more information than needed, I was in good
shape, as well as prodding my brain again about the features of telnet..

We're in business again... Appreciate!!
