[GLLUG] logwatch mail?

I have an RH9 box set up with logwatch.

I went to set it up on another machine (debian sarge) but the mail doesn't get though to our mail server.  I have it set up so that the logwatch.conf specifies the mail to go to logsmailaddress at ourdomain.com.

On the mailserver, in the security log, I get the message [01/Feb/2007 09:32:55] Message from IP address 192.168.0.5, sender <root@> rejected: sender domain does not exist

The other machine sends mail as root at localhost.localdomain.  Is there a way to set these up so that they are from root at machinename.mydomain.com - example root at ladon.catheycompany.com?

If so - how - please, If you have an idea, let me know.

Thanks,
