I've currently got some consultants setting up my Solaris box to enable me 
to send mail to our company mail server for sending out to the internet. At 
the moment the way that they have configured it brings up the host name 
and the current user id in the mail headers before passing to my mail server, 
and obviously I would rather hide these. The headers look like:

Received from user@localhost (8.8.8+Solaris/8.8.8) by host.domain.com

where host.domain.com is the name assigned to the Solaris box in it's 
configuration.

The Solaris box is inside my firewall, and the SMTP mail server is in my 
"dmz", so I'd rather have the headers look like the Solaris box is just another 
PC mail client on my LAN (which do not add Received headers themselves). 

Can anyone give me pointers on the configuration of sendmail (I believe this 
is what they are using) on my Solaris box so that it does not create headers 
in the message before passing to my SMTP mail server? I have no Unix 
experience which is why consultants are setting it up (and also because 
they own the box, we rent it off them along with the application software we 
have running on the system).
