As xmail is a MTA, it don't care about the mail content itself and its
headers, it only take the delivery info from the smtp session, so the
'error-report' email will be the smtp sender (MAIL FROM)

You have two simple choices (not exhaustive):

1 - Use the 'Mail From' address as the 'MAIL FROM' (smtp)
Effectively your server can be banned or rejected by many servers =
running
anti-spam software doing checks like spf, sender-id, reverse mx checks, =
....

2 - If the MailFrom sender email don't change on each sent mail =
(mailing ?),
create a special account (a real account or a cmd account) owned on =
your
server like '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (or on a special domain to avoid
confusion with your domain), setup this special account to redirect to =
the
real MailFrom sender (method depends of real or cmd account, see xmail =
doc)
and ask your friend to use it as the MAIL FROM sender.=20
