That's what you want right?

It is a sendmail configuration "problem", or better: a problem
what you want to achieve... It says
(from mugwort@localhost)
because that's your account. What do you care about this header?
It is used for tracing/troubleshooting only.
So:
1. it's off-topic for mutt
2. I don't see your problem
3. If you have to hide something, edit the Received: header
definition... (see cf/README and doc/op/op.me in your sendmail
distribution).
4. LookOut probably uses SMTP to submit e-mails, so sendmail
can't find out who's talking to it unless identd is running
(which of course isn't...)
