[SLL] postfix smtp auth (outbound) without SASL, without cyrus?

My laptop is on a Verizon FIOS network. Due to the dynamic IP some mail
servers block my mail.
I have an server I can relay through using SMTP AUTH that is running Exim.
I have tested using sylpheed-claws.
I want postfix to send through it also.
I used:
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options =
relayhost = my.mail.server
But my postfix was not built with cyrus and I don't have any cyrus
installed. Postfix complains:
Aug 10 11:29:49 glacier postfix/smtp[21088]: warning: unsupported SASL
client implementation: cyrus
Aug 10 11:29:49 glacier postfix/smtp[21088]: fatal: SASL library
initialization
I can also manually do SMTP and send my base64 encoded authentication and
the mail server says "235 Authentication succeeded".
How can I get Postfix to do the same -- generate a base64 encoded
authentication using a password map and use it without using outside
program?
It seems so trivial that I can't imagine that postfix can not do it but I
can't find any docs about this.
Thanks,
