I'm running fc7 (updated). I updated via yum from fc6.
Oddly, Cyrus continued to work after the upgrade (it usually breaks).
This time it was sendmail that broke, even though I'm running with a fairly stock system.
The extent of my sendmail.mc edits are below.
I get messages from sendmail saying that my client (Thunderbird on Windows Vista and FC7), well:
Sep 29 19:21:59 mail sendmail[5288]: STARTTLS=server, relay=pvr.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.8], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Sep 29 19:22:23 mail sendmail[5288]: l8U1LxLB005288: pvr.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.8]: possible SMTP attack: command=AUTH, count=4 Sep 29 19:22:30 mail sendmail[5288]: l8U1LxLB005288: pvr.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.8] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA-v4 Sep 29 19:23:05 mail sendmail[5295]: STARTTLS=server, relay=pvr.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.8], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256
but if I turn off TLS, it seems to work ok (using username/password authentication in the clear, I guess).
Since it's TLS, I couldn't use tcpdump to read the transactions...
Here are the sendmail.mc edits. Nothing too weird:

Anyone seen anything similar to this?
I recently started experiencing this problem with Fedora 7. I think it started with a sendmail update. Like you said, TLS doesn't seem to work but it works if you set it with not encrypt no auth. I think TLS may work if I set it with no authentication, but really, I'm not into joining BotNet. This has become very troublesome as this is how my Treo sends mail (is by connecting with TLS and authenticating) preventing anyone from using my sendmail server as an open relay.
