Problems with MAILER-DAEMON message addressed wrong

I have just started using Sendmail-5.65c+IDA 1.4.4.1 on a Sun 3/180
SunOS 4.1.1.  I am not connected to the Internet and I use uunet as my
relay host.  See my config file below for more information.

When mail bounces, the returning mail message from MAILER-DAEMON gets
addressed wrong. This is a copy of the bounced mail from MAILER-DAEMON.

So how did mail to RICKULAND@delphi.com end up to RICKULAND@uunet.uu.net?
I assume that I have done something wrong in configuring sendmail.  Below
is the config file that I use.

#
# mcrware.m4	- Mcrware mail host configuration file
#
define(DEFAULT_HOST, microware.com)
define(M4COMMENTS)
define(ALIASES, /etc/aliases)
define(BANGIMPLIESUUCP)
define(PSEUDONYMS, microware.com mcrware.microware.com localhost.microware.com)
define(POSTMASTERBOUNCE)

define(DOMAINTABLE, LIBDIR/domaintable)
define(MAILERTABLE, LIBDIR/mailertable)
define(UUCPXTABLE, LIBDIR/uucpxtable)
define(UUCPNODES, LIBDIR/uucpnodes)

define(RELAY_HOST, uunet)
define(RELAY_MAILER, UUCP-A)

define(UUCPMAILER, UUCP-A)
define(UUCPNAME, mcrware)

define(HIDDENDOMAIN, microware.com)
include(Sendmail.mc)
