when i try to authentificate (via sendmail) i get:


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mta-rx: [ID 801593 mail.error] k6DCm1ID002220: AUTH failure (PLAIN):

it looks like sendmail doesnt see saslauthd (?!)


i've started saslauthd in debug mode and
when i run testsaslauthd, i get

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# saslauthd -a pam -d
