Right,

So I added:

MASQUERADE_AS(`public.domain')

to my sendmail.mc, did a make all and copied it to sendmail.cf and  
restarted sendmail. How ever it's still not working! Now in the mailq  
I have this:

<user at box.local.domain>
(Deferred: 450 4.1.8 <user at box.local.domain>: Sender address rejected:  
Domain not found)
<quakenet1 at optusnet.com.au>
(Deferred: 450 4.1.8 <user at box.local.domain>: Sender address rejected:  
Domain not found)

Why does it have two deferred messages for each mail now?! As you can  
see it is NOT changing the sender address even though I set it to.. I  
think it just hates to play along >.<

Thanks for baring with me!
