After changing the hostname in /etc/sysconfig/network, you'll also need
to set it with the "hostname" command (see man page) or reboot the
computer.  If you don't reboot, be sure to restart sendmail after
running "hostname."

Also, regarding the localhost.localdomain in the headers -- are you
using fechmail to retrieve your mail, or a similar system?
