I bet this only happens in outlook.

You could try putting "sender = $SENDER" in your LISTNAME.config file.

owner-list@domain.com is not a real address, it is an alias. That is the reason
you have it in your /etc/aliases or majordomo.aliases file.

Both majordomo and sendmail only know the one address that owner-list resolves
to. If owner-list is a real login name on the system, then you can send mail
from that address. Otherwise, it will be translated from the aliases file into
what the "REAL" address is.
