Hide FQDN in sendmail


Dear all,

I am using suse linux 10.1 and i have configured sendmail for our intranet mail service. Everything is fine except, when we send any mail in the from address it shows mail id as username@FQDN ( for example:
From: test@mailserver.example.com ) and i need to hide the "mailserver"
( like test@example.com ) from the header.
Can someone help me in this case.

Thanks in advance
Shan

Do a Google search on "masquerading". That is the sendmail method for doing this.
