Sendmail AUTH Problem

[ogmedia]

Hi folks,

I have a strange problem with Sendmail on a SuSE Linux 10.0 64b System. My Sendmail is supposed to relay all outgoing mails to another smtp (smtp.1und1.de) that requires authentification via PLAIN or LOGIN. Everything works so far, except for the authentification on that server, the AUTH LOGIN command isn't even issued, see logs for detail. Here's my log snipped, my sendmail.cf and the auth-info:

01179 === CONNECT smtp.1und1.de.
01179 <<< 220 smtp.1und1.de (mrelayeu4) Welcome to Nemesis ESMTP server^M
01179 >>> EHLO office-main.buero
01179 <<< 250-mrelayeu4.kundenserver.de pleased to meet you^M
01179 <<< 250-STARTTLS^M
01179 <<< 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN^M
01179 <<< 250-AUTH=PLAIN LOGIN^M
01179 <<< 250-PIPELINING^M
01179 <<< 250-SIZE 52428800^M
01179 <<< 250 HELP^M
01179 >>> MAIL From:<buero@dersteinmetzsavoly.de> SIZE=892
01179 <<< 250 mail from: <buero@dersteinmetzsavoly.de> ok^M
01179 >>> RCPT To:<olli_grunow@web.de>
01179 >>> DATA
01179 <<< 550 must be authenticated^M
01179 <<< 554 no valid recipients^M
01179 >>> RSET
01179 <<< 250 OK^M
