How do I do host hiding...?

I.e., if I have hosts "foo.bar.com" and "snow.bar.com", how do I get them
to make outbound mail (mainly out of the domain bar.com) look like it's all
from "user@bar.com"...?

I'm suffering from a specific case of a host named "bar.bar.com" that's
a Sun registered on the Internet as "bar.com" and without an alias for
"bar.bar.com". And getting such an alias doesn't seem to be an option.
The mail it generates is from "user@bar.bar.com" and is unrepliable (is
that a word?!?!).

In a broader sense, I need to do this to HP's, Suns and DECs all running
the sendmail provided with each's operating system at near-current and
current revisions.

Thanks in advance!
