You're right, this is a sendmail thing. You should use the sendmail aliases 
file and define the local address of your user as an alias for his other 
address. The syntax is
   localusername   :     remoteaddress
the file "aliases" usually resides in "/etc/mail". Don't forget to re-read 
the aliases file into the sendmail aliases database "aliases.db", usually 
done by giving
         $> newaliases
an the prompt, which is an shell synonym for
         $> sendmail -bi
