As has beem said, you have two choices, either re-configure, re-build,
or change how your MTA executes child processes (or possibly just how
your MTA executes)

If this was working before then something must have changed with your
MTA, but you didn't say which MTA you're using. Some MTA's can be
configured via their config file to run with specific identities (e.g.
the postfix mail_owner parameter). Ths is an MTA issue, please consult
your MTA documentation.
