I would guess that it probably is sendmail that is rewriting the
Sender field, but the sure way to find out is to set
sendmail=/tmp/makelog, where /tmp/makelog is a script something like:

#!/bin/sh
echo $* > /tmp/sendlog
cat - >> /tmp/sendlog

Then you might be able to solve the problem by adding arguments to
sendmail, such as "-f user@hostname".
