If you are running sendmail, the pieces you want are:

MASQUERADE_AS(`xdroop.com')dnl
dnl EXPOSED_USER(`root')dnl

Prefixing a line with 'dnl' effectively comments it out.

You might also be interested in:

FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl

..depending on what you are doing.

Then restart sendmail.  The init script will run make in /etc/mail
before launching.  

(oh, and change 'xdroop.com' to your domain of course.  :)
