Well, I changed my sendmail.mf file's MASQUERADE_AS(`abc.com')dnl, abc.com is the source domain that I want to be. but it still shown as root@mylinux.mycompany.com. In fact, I did install postfix before and configured the /etc/postfix/main.cf 's myorigin=abc.com but it still shown as root@mylinux.mycompany.com. And my friend told me that it is because my postfix is taken over by sendmail. So I stop my sendmail.. and restart the postfix.. postfix start fine.. but I still cannot send mail via postfix as the source address that define in main.cf "myorigin=abc.com" when I am using root.
what my friend told me was it is because, I am still using Sendmail, namely because sendmail(1) is the Sendmail MTA and not Postfix' sendmail binary.
BUT I wonder what he said is true or not now. As later I tried to start both sendmail and postfix and using the postfix command (mail -s "subject" david@yahoo.com < /file using other user account for example david instead of root. It does show the source address as david@abc.com. But I wonder it doesn't apply to root. Anyone can tell me??

And I found that my source email address is always root@mylinux.mycompany.com. mylinux is my hostname and mycompany is my company domain name. but how can change my source email address to root@abc.com or myname@abc.com?? where is the setting??? Is that in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf ? But I don't know where should I change.
