IIRC, that is handled in majordomo.cf:

# $whereami -- What machine am I running on?
#
$whereami = "somewhere.net";

# $whoami -- Who do users send requests to me as?
#
$whoami = "Majordomo\@$whereami";

# $whoami_owner -- Who is the owner of the above, in case of problems?
#
$whoami_owner = "Majordomo-Owner\@$whereami";
