Have you also created a SASL Sendmail.conf file? It should either contain
no 'pwcheck_method' entry, or explicitly include your desired mechanisms.

Use pluginviewer to verify the PLAIN and LOGIN mechanisms were properly
compiled and installed.

(smtptest is another way to test this)

Sendmail may (or may not) have the equivalent of Cyrus IMAP's
'allowplaintext'. You may also need to adjust your 'minimum_ssf' and
'maximum_ssf' values if they are exposed within Sendmail's configuration.
