The simple answer is that sendmail can't do that by itself as it has no
support for client-side SSL. You need to use a program such as _stunnel_
to provide the encryption wrapper. Here is a fedoraproject wiki posting
that describes the basics:

Yeah, I read that. It looks like a start. I already have stunnel
installed (for what I can't remember, I thought it was my IPv6 tunnel,
but I'm no longer sure), and I have no stunnel process running atm.
That's basically what I had running back in 2007 when Comcast
didn't
allow global access to port 587. I'd post the whole setup that I used,
but my old sysVinit script for starting an stunnel service wouldn't be
worth much these days
Try me, my mail server is still running F14....
