relayhost when authentication is required

[Matt Price]

hi folks, 

i run postfix on my home computers and use sendmail for all my maail
programs (evolution, mutt, thunderbird, whatever).  both machines run ubuntu
dapper and postfix 2.2.10.  

with our old ip i just added a 'relayhost' line in main.cf and my mail was
sent out fine.  however our new evil isp (rogers/yahoo) requires
authentication first.  so outgoing mail generates these log messages (sorry
for thewrap!):

ug 31 12:46:07 localhost postfix/master[15806]: daemon started -- version

http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-11.html (in reply to MAIL FROM
command))


i assume i need some mechanism for sending out my password to their server,
but don't know how to do it.  does anyone have this setup or something
similar working?

thanks,

matt
