Author FC3: Problems with kmail or sendmail...or both.

Hello:
See the header below.
Some of my mail, now (kmai/FC3) bounces back as spam.

For some reason the sender appears to be
"Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON@localhost.localdomain>" instead of
my terun email adress as set in kmail. (I have see posting along this line
too).

My mailing agent is the default "sendmail".
Any idea on how to fix this, which looks to me as a bug (either kmail, or
sendmail default installation) ?

Thanks.

What I usually do, which works all the time, is setup kmail to use smtp
directly to my isp email server instead of relying on sendmail.

Sendmail is useful only if you have your own local email server, or your
machine connects to internet directly on LAN and not through an isp, and if
you know how to configure it.
