If you use `mailx' you could use `-r' hook for sender's address.
Hobbit just runs your systems "mail" utility to send mail. How
that decides what to put in the From: header is outside Hobbit's
control - typically it picks the "Full name" part of the hobbit
users' entry in the /etc/passwd field, and adds the originating
e-mail address <user-e806796357cf@xymon.invalid>.
