Return-Path: Mail headers problem

Hi all:
I'm running sendmail v8.9.0 on a Decstation running v4.5 of Ultrix.  My
problem is that for mail sent from other machines (ie not from
localhost), the Return-Path always gets set to daemon.  I've checked the
Bat Book, and the format of the Return-Path: rule in my sendmail.cf file
matches the format in the book.  Any ideas how to fix this annoying
little problem? :)

Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
--Lee
