Upgrade to the latest sendmail RPM from RedHat. For RedHat 7.x, this is 
sendmail-8.11.6; you should also install the sendmail-cf and sendmail-doc 
RPM's.

Edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc that control the use of SMTP AUTH (you should 
not edit the sendmail.cf directly). Make sure they look like this:

define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl

Be very careful to make the three lines exactly like this.

Note that the latest sendmail, by default, only allows mail to be sent from 
the loopback interface (the same machine). See near the bottom, you'll find 
one more line similar to this:

dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')

Make sure it starts with dnl.

You should now have the ability to do SMTP AUTH.
