I hoped sendmail was simply corrupting the username and password on
its way to libsasl, but that's not case.

illumos libsasl doesn't support shadow(4) and the login.so and plain.so auxprop
plugins don't seem to actually do anything with checkpass, though maybe
I'm missing another callback.
 
It looks like the sendmail + Cyrus SASL replacement is the only
route:
