Right after I upgrade my RH9 to Fedora C1, my Mozilla can't send email any more. It will pop up an input box for me to authorize the smtp connection from my user account to localhost. This extra step was never necessary before. More over, even I input my right password, Mozilla will still fail the authorization.
What kind of MTA is used Fedora C1? What is the right way to configure it so that this extra authorization step is not necessary?
I searched on google before raising this question, and it seems that it is still an unsolved problem:

I | messed around for awhile and can only think it was an unwanted compile | option. For now, I fixed the problem by migrating back to | sendmail-8.12.8-9.90 from redhat 9.

I am wondering if there is any solution to it.
$ telnet localhost smtp Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
$ telnet localhost www Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. ^] telnet> quit Connection closed.
service saslauthd start Starting saslauthd: [ OK ]
$ telnet localhost smtp Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
— still the same
