Hmmm... how about that? 'man sendmail'
Do you know how many times today I recommended that someone read the man page?
Should take my own advice every now and again...
Looks like my version of sendmail should be able to do that. I just gotta 
figger out how sendmail gets started on COL and how to specify -i. I'm 
looking thru /etc/rc.d/init.d/mta and /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail, but 
nothing's jumping out at me...I'll figger it out (hopefully...)

Thanks, 
Tim
