Sendmail "Invalid Sender"
I sent a mail from my local Sendmail server to my Gmail account. It doesn't work and a mail comes from sendmail deamon. This is part of the mail.

Code:
--p7VKQPHh006213.1314822385/localhost.localdomain

The original message was received at Wed, 31 Aug 2011 22:26:24 +0200
from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]

   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<recipient@gmail.com>
    (reason: 501 5.1.0 Emetteur invalide. Invalid Sender. OFR204_405 [405])

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com.:
>>> MAIL From:<root@localhost.localdomain> SIZE=596 AUTH=<>
<<< 501 5.1.0 Emetteur invalide. Invalid Sender. OFR204_405 [405]
501 5.6.0 Data format error

I tried to send it with telnet. With the following I get the same error
Code:
HELO localhost.localdomain
MAIL From:<root@localhost.localdomain> SIZE=596 AUTH=<>

But with this it works:
Code:
HELO localhost.localdomain
MAIL From:<root@localhost.localdomain>

My question is: how can I configure sendmail to don't put SIZE and AUTH fields while sending mail?

Thanks for any answer,
--mghis

PS: if needed I'll post sendmail configuration files.

calibre-smtp

CALIBRE-SMTP(1) 						      calibre							   CALIBRE-SMTP(1)

NAME

       calibre-smtp - part of calibre

SYNOPSIS

       calibre-smtp  [options] [from to text]

DESCRIPTION

       Send  mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
       used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.

       text is the body of the email message.  If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN.  from is the  email  address
       of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
       negotiation, the message headers are not modified.

       Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help

       -l, --localhost
	      Host name of localhost. Used when connecting to SMTP server.

       -o, --outbox
	      Path to maildir folder to store failed email messages in.

       -f, --fork

       -t, --timeout
	      Timeout for connection

       -v, --verbose

	      File to attach to the email

       -s, --subject
	      Subject of the email

   SMTP RELAY
       Options to use an SMTP relay server to send mail. calibre will try to send the email directly unless --relay is specified.

	      An SMTP relay server to use to send mail.
