Are you talking about what appears on the "from" header line. Id so, these instuctions: http://www.stevesearle.com/tech/centos5.0.svr.html#sendmail explain how I set it up to work for me, showing mail as comming from [EMAIL PROTECTED], where the IP address that stevesearle.com resolves to is really a box hosted by my ISP, not on my local network. Can you check that you have sendmail-cf installed (yum list installed sendmail-cf) as I think that may be your problem.
