Cant get AUTH LOGIN PLAIN working w/ Sendmail

[carves123]

Hello Professionals,

I have been trying to get AUTH LOGIN PLAIN working with Sendmail but with no result.
I have checked all config/setting and processes. I have also checked around Google.

I wonder if someone help me to get it working.

telnet localhost 25
