Description jah 2022-07-18 20:42:46 UTC
"250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN" missing when connecting to the server after upgrading from sendmail-8.16.1-r1 to sendmail-8.17.1-r2.  Getting "AUTH warning: no mechanisms" in the logs. Did an emerge world and rebooted but no change.  Masked 8.17 which downgraded me to sendmail-8.16.1-r2. During a previous update, cyrus-sasl-2.1.27-r6 had been upgraded to cyrus-sasl-2.1.28-r2. After downgrading sendmail, I re-emerged it and sasl and that fixed the issue.  This looks a lot like FreeBSD Bug 263287.

Comment 1 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-07-18 20:45:28 UTC
Could you try https://bz-attachments.freebsd.org/attachment.cgi?id=233353 in /etc/portage/patches?
Comment 2 jah 2022-07-18 21:12:27 UTC
Sendmail and smtp auth can be fragile and I'm afraid to break my production instance again as I don't have time to troubleshoot it right now.  I can work on it this weekend or try to set it up on one of my home servers.  I know that's not very helpful from the bug submitter but I'm tied up with some family issues right now unfortunately.  I wanted to go ahead and submit the bug report before too much time passed.

No worries at all, I very much appreciate the report & help so far.
