You don't actually need the authinfo feature to use authinfo.  You
can put the same data in the access database instead.  The README
file describes how to do that.  These are my access files:

    -rw-r-----   1 root     root         172 Jul  3  2011 /etc/mail/access
    -rw-r-----   1 root     root       32768 Jul  3  2011 /etc/mail/access.db

The contents are like this:

    AuthInfo:[mail.messagingengine.com] "U:user at domain" "P:password" "M:PLAIN"
    AuthInfo:mail.messagingengine.com "U:user at domain" "P:password" "M:PLAIN"

I'll attach the .mc file I'm using.  You'll need to modify it in
order to use it.

#  This is a configuration file for SunOS 5.8 (a.k.a. Solaris 8) and later
#  subsidiary machines.  It has support for local and SMTP mail.  The
#  confFALLBACK_SMARTHOST macro is enabled, which means that messages will
#  be sent to that host (which is set to mailhost.$m [$m is the local domain])
#  if MX records are unavailable.  A short-cut rule is also defined, which
#  says if the recipient host is in the local domain, send to it directly
#  instead of the smart host.

#  If you want to customize this further, copy it to a name appropriate
#  for your environment and do the modifications there.
