Michael,
I had a similar problem. I had one linux server that i was sending mail from.
When i send mail from that machine to the outside world the mail had
information that it was coming from localhost.localadmin.
I tried to use the masquerade_as functionality but that itself did not work.
In addition i had to add the following to the /etc/hosts file.
change
127.0.0.1      localhost.localadmin localhost
to
127.0.0.1      yourmachinename.yourdomain yourmachinename localhost.localadmin
localhost

Note:
Do not remove the localhost.localadmin localhost entry just prepend
yourmachinename.yourdomain yourmachinename. The reason being that some
services will fail if you do that.
Restart sendmail, or preferebaly reboot your machine.
You should have the desired results.

I have 2 Linux servers on a small test LAN. I am trying to setup sendmail
properly.  I have configured the proper MX records in the DNS database.  I
have setup Sendmail to allow connections other than localhost (127.0.0.1).
Only one of the servers is configured to use sendmail, the second server has
the sendmail service disabled.  If I logon to the second server,
box2.test.lan, and send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I receive the mail but if I
try to reply it looks like it came from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I have changed
the MASQUERADE AS entry in the sendmail.mc file but this has no effect. What
else do I need to change in order to allow all mail to appear to come the
domain and not the machine? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Michael
