I do not know if nmh supports any authentication capabilities.
It optionally supports SASL:

<kenh(_at_)cmf(_dot_)nrl(_dot_)navy(_dot_)mil>'s patches
implementing SASL support for POP3 and SMTP. If nmh is compiled
with SASL support, using the -sasl switch on the inc, msgchk,
post, and send commands will enable authentication encryption for
SMTP, and both authentication and data stream encryption for POP3.
To use:
1) Add to configure something like:
--with-cyrus-sasl=/usr/lib/sasl2
2) Enable in your .mh_profile:
send: -sasl -user <user>
3) Add ~/.netrc file with:
default login <user> password <password>
Also, the smtp port should be configurable vs hardcoded.
It is. As Ken noted earlier in this thread:
send: -port submission
(The -port option to send and post doesn't appear in their man pages.)
