Author cron: Looking for something like MAILFROM

I'm wondering if there is something like MAILFROM (according to the
MAILTO environmnet variable) to change the FROM address when cron is
sending mails.
Is there any other way to change the domain part of the sender when
sending mails through cron directly (without using pipes and without
having root access to the box)?
Could MAILTO to be used to pipe the mails through a command (f.i.
'mailx -r').

TiA,
Jan
