I have pam set up to use LDAP rather than NIS but the sendmail config
should be the same:

/usr/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf:
pwcheck_method:saslauthd

In /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd make sure you have "MECH=pam"

Make sure you have the cyrus-sasl-plain package installed.

Make sure saslauthd is running.

The relevant snippets from sendmail.mc:
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
Thanks Paul. That didn't work. I see the following errors in my system logs:

==> /var/log/messages <==
