The real answer is putting an authentication layer into SMTP.
Already done. Sendmail supports it. Where've you been?
Well, to be fair, sendmail has only supported it in a public release for 2-3 weeks. :) Sure, it's been in the beta code for a while (and 8.10 is still in beta), but sendmail supporting it is a new (albeit welcome) change. There are other MTA's that Dean could long ago installed that implemented SMTP-AUTH before sendmail got around to it, though, so his argument is still pretty moot. D
