Yup.  That's the envelope sender address, as used in the SMTP dialog.
That doesn't get masqueraded by default -- but you should see that the
From: line within the message is masqueraded.

Use:

    FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl

to make sendmail rewrite the envelope sender address as well.  You
might also want to use:

    FEATURE(allmasquerade)dnl

which applies masquerading to *recipient* addresses.

	Cheers,
