Since the discovery of "Modifiers=A" I have tried, yet the attempts are

You can easily check it yourself:

telnet 101.0.102.2 25
wait for greeting
EHLO your.host


$ telnet 101.0.102.2 25
220 mail.barrett.com.au ESMTP SMTP
ehlo my.host
250-barrett.com.au Hello ....

AUTH Login asb
503 5.3.3 AUTH not available

Seems to work as expected.

Hence the AUTH attempts are on a different port or from something else.

sendmail.x86_64   8.15.2-34.el8

Pretty old?
