I've got BSDi 2.0, and am running the latest sendmail patch (8.x.10?)

I host a number of domain names, and put them in /etc/sendmail.cw, and
have no problem receiving mail for those domains.

My problem is that I'd like the From: line to reflect those domains
for those users, but sendmail always substitutes the local host name
in the domain portion of the From: address, even though these users 
have their own domains listed in their return address in Eudora.

Is there a way to configure sendmail to allow these folks to specify
their domain names to appear in the From: line of the header?

Thanks for any info!
