Sendmail Follow-up

I had a question, which I answered for myself, about setting up RH8.0
(sendmail v8.12.5-7) so it put the correct server name in outbound emails.
For personal emails, it's working after adding Cwourldsfamily.com to
sendmail.cf, but, when the sytem generates mail (I suspect smtp formail
protocol) such as email generated by cron jobs, the hostname.domain.com is
sent along. This also applies to Majordomo outbound email. Members of a
group will do a reply and they get listname at host.domain.com instead of
just listname at domain.com...

I'm puzzled but think I remember a setting for simple mail transport
protocol that sets this. I just can't remember where it is. ???

TIA
