May be getting somewhere. When I run the telnet, I get:

502 Command is locally disabled

I looked in main.cf for something that may be close, what I have is:

smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = no

I really want to thank you for your assistance.

See SASL_README

telnet mx01.mail.bellsouth.net 25
EHLO something
AUTH PLAIN xxxxxx

where xxxxx is anBASE64 encoded string:
In order to generate base64 encoded authentication information you can
use one
of the following commands:

    % printf 'username\0username\0password' | mmencode
    
        % perl -MMIME::Base64 -e \
                'print encode_base64("username\0username\0password");'
