[Mailman-Users] mail coming from different hostname than specified

I use sendmail.  I have the hostname and fqdn lists.domain.com in my Fw 
file.

If it was masquerading all mail out with this hostname, then all my 
email would say it was from user at hostname.domain.com rather than 
user at domain.com  like it is now.
