// I used the libs from cyrus-sasl-1.5.28.tar.gz

The problem here is that -lsasl2 isn't on the compile line..
it is strange that the configure script allowed you to build
hotsmtpd without first having a working cyrus-sasl to
compile against. How do you try to compile it? By running
configure in the main hotwayd directory and then make in the
main hotwayd directory? What's your system configuration?
Linux/cygwin?

Then it is no wonder it wont compile for you.
You need at least version 2.0 of the cyrus sasl library.
Get it at http://asg.web.cmu.edu/sasl/sasl-library.html

I've added an extra check in configure.in for 0.8.2 to check
that you have an appropriate version of cyrus-sasl installed
so this should now happy. To fix it install cyrus-sasl-2.x
