Is localhost in /etc/mail/local-host-names ?
and sendmail.mc has
    FEATURE(`use_cw_file')dnl              # local-host-names
Yes, it"s OK.

... while talking to [127.0.0.1]:
MAIL From:<root@gophernet.hu> SIZE=665 AUTH=root@gophernet.hu

gophernet.hu should also be in /etc/mail/local-host-names
Also OK. I checked this first.

<<< 530 5.7.0 Authentication required
554 5.0.0 Service unavailable

My domain names is set fine, the sendmail config is the same that we used over 3 years with no problem, so I have no idea, what is wrong.
Even the Google don't help, I just find an user with the same error.
Please help me to solve this, if your have any idea.

Do you use /etc/mail/access ? does it have any Connect: lines ?

I have these two Connect lines:
"
Connect:localhost    RELAY
Connect:gophernet.hu    RELAY
"

I have really no idea what is wrong with this.
Anyway, thanks for the answer.
