Add this to your sendmail-sasl.mc file:

TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `PLAIN LOGIN')

Usually you just want to run this on the submission port, as so:

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Addr=142.46.200.221, Port=587, Name=MSA, M=Ea')

If this is a separate invocation of sendmail (ie you have a non-SMTP-AUTH sendmail instance running on port 25, and you also want to run this one) add this to the sendmail-sasl.mc file:

FEATURE(no_default_msa)
This prevents the second instance from trying to bind to port 25.

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
