The new sendmail (8.11.x) and above can do authenticated SMTP, but you'll
have to read the docs on setting it up. I don't use sendmail.
Alternatively, try postfix, exim or courier, all of which do authenticated
SMTP:

http://www.postfix.org/
http://www.courier-mta.org/
http://www.exim.org/

In my opinion, courier is the nicest, since its authentication just works
out of the box - no special config needed, but do read the docs carefully,
as it is a complex piece of software.
