Is the "domain.com" in andrew@domain.com a FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name)?
If not, you should sendmail tell to use the "genericstable"-feature to rewrite
your mail-adress in the "From"-Line (1. Line) in the mailheaders to something 
like "andrew@FQDN". If you don't know how to configure sendmail, 
read /usr/share/sendmail/README


Good luck ;) & snafu
