This isn't a "real" error, it just says that the AUTH= parameter in the SMTP
MAIL command isn't trusted because the client didn't authenticate, so it's not
going to pass the AUTH= parameter on to the next hop. That's an expected log
message in this case, and you wouldn't get it with logging at the default
level (yours is at 10). It's not preventing delivery of any mail.
