I've received several replies, and the answer is:

Aliases defined in the system /usr/lib/aliases are not expanded in the header.
Aliases defined in the user's .mailrc are expanded in the header.

Now, my sendmail is somehow getting my yellow pages domain as a host.
Oh well, I should be able to track that down.  Special thanks to
Creon@orville, pdb@sei.cmu.edu, and bob@acornrc.
