summary: sendmail & masquearading

Summary:

In order to test this properly, you must NOT be root!
Root receives special treatment which obscures the
behavior you wish to observer.

The reason for this deals with the "exposed user" 
concept, which is well documented. I'd imagine
you'll find everything working as you'd like, for
other users ...
