how to use gmail smtp server for outgoing mail

[SOLOMON]

Hi,
If memory serves me correct the email client allows you to change your
incoming and outgoing mail servers.  If you can change your outgoing mail
server to smtp.gmail.com with your username and password, change your
incoming post to 995 and your outgoing port to 465 (SSL) you may be OK.

Subject: how to use gmail smtp server for outgoing mail


I have a domain associated with my comcast IP address (I use dyndns.org)

I installed sendmail on Fedora 14 and I can receive mail OK, but when I try
to send outgoing mail, gmail.com rejects it with the following error:

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to smtp.gmail.com:
>>> MAIL From:<don at drussell.dnsalias.com> SIZE=634
<<< 530-5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at
<<< 530 5.5.1 http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=14257
v19sm7563260wfh.0
554 5.0.0 Service unavailable

I've tried to update /etc/mail/auth/client-info
and run makemap -r has /etc/mail/auth/client-info.db < client-info
/etc/mail/make
service sendmail restart

but not having any success. :-(

Obviously I don't have it configured properly for when sendmail is acting as
a client. :-(

Here are the changes I've made to sendmail.mc (and then cd /etc/mail; make)

#diff sendmail.mc sendmail.mc.original

Any suggestions?

Thank you
