Tanner -
Yes this was it --in sendmail, virtusertable for incoming and genericstable for outbound email did the trick.
Thanks, Mark

Aaron,
While what you've said is quite true, it's not the end of the story. There can
be a legitimate need to rewrite e-mail address return addresses for command line programs like mutt, etc... While I have no idea how to
do it in sendmail, in postfix, you can use the "sender_canonical_maps"
parameter in /etc/postfix/main.cf to accomplish this. I'm using exactly
this setup on a box I'm running with great results. For virtual domain I host we have defined the following line in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
sender_canonical_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/maps/sender_map
And in the file sender_map it's just a list of logins and their full e-mail address. (Specifically, what it does is map between unqualified addresses, that is addresses without a domain on them and fully quailified addresses). For instance:
# sender_maps file user1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] user2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] user3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This seems to be exactly what you're looking for, Mark. Right?
There's almost certainly a similar feature in sendmail that some
of the sendmail gurus (*cough* Jon Carnes *cough*) can tell you
about.
Cheers, Tanner

The users outbound mail is defaulting to the default domain -- Should I not have "default domain" in Sendmail?
The real pertinent question here is, what client are the user's using to send mail? Because you're asking the question, I'm going to guess that they're using some local ssh-based mail client such as pine or mutt, in which case you'll need to set the "from" address in each client (or directly in it's appropriate configuration file). From address is something that's always controlled from the client's perspective - which is part of why email is so easily forged.
If of course my guess it off, let us know what email client you're using and we'll see what we can figure out for you. :)
