empty AUTH in MAIL FROM

I have a setup of fetchmail and maildrop that sends some mails (dsns) to a
smarthost, and I need the AUTH field in the MAIL FROM smtp line to be
written and empty. Something like:

MAIL FROM:<> SIZE=1234 AUTH=<>

Is there a way to set this up for the fetchmail user? I have tried to add
the fetchmail user to the trusted_groups, but then either I get no AUTH or
I get AUTH defined.

Maildrop redirects mail to sendmail (part of exim). It looks as the
setup of fetchmail user.

fetchmail.log:
[...]
maildrop: hasaddr: rfc822 parsed: my [at] address
/var/lib/fetchmail/mailfilter(6): IF evaluated, result=1
maildrop: Delivering to |/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -f '' my [at] address
maildrop: Delivery complete.
[...]

Oh, you're trying to get exim to send outbound with AUTH=<> ?
Sorry - this wasn't clear.

Look into "Authentication by an Exim client"
at
