This is a minor informational error most likely.  If you are running the
latest release, then psadwatchd is no longer started by default because
process monitoring for a system daemon like psad is best left to other
software.

You can set the ALERTING_METHODS variable in psad.conf to 'noemail' to
disable email alerts (after restarting psad).  Changing the source hostname
for outgoing emails is a function of your MTA, not psad.
