Want to remove localhost.localdomain from messages

[Guest_imported]

Hello-

I am using a mass-mailing program to email a newsletter to a large number of people. The emails are being relayed through a sendmail server. I am trying to have the "From:" be just a name, not an email address, and I am setting the "Reply to:" to the correct address.

The problem is, sendmail appends "@localhost.localdomain" to the From address in all of the messages.

example:
i am sending a message from "John Doe". The message is received as From: John.Doe@localhost.localdomain.

Does anyone know of a way to stop sendmail from adding "@localhost.localdomain" ?

Does anyone know how to do this?? if so, please respond. i would think somewhere in sendmail.cf i can change this, but i don't know where.
