I had to use SASL to get SMTP Auth working. The walk through I used (which was for OpenBSD) is at: http://www.backwatcher.org/writing/howtos/obsd-sendmail+sasl.html
You seem to have a good understanding of what going on, so you should be able to get past the OBSD specific things. Pretty much Install SASL (if it isn't already), make you sendmail.mc, kill -HUP. With OpenBSD you had to recompile for use with SASL, that may or may not be needed with RedHat. A simple way to check if SMTP Auth (of any flavour) is working, just telnet to you mail server, and type 'ehlo whatever'. It should list the authentication methods. Mine: 250-AUTH CRAM-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN Now that I think of it, if this is suppose to work out of the box with RedHat, I probably haven't helped at all.. Sorry. It's very nice once working, take my word for it.
