Hi Marion

Thanks for the above, that's the route I decided to go down as I feel 
it's more elegant than hacking the netbackup scripts.

I needed to add these lines into sendmail.mc:

MASQUERADE_AS(mydomain.com)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomain.com)dnl

Also I had to edit the solaris-generic.m4 file to remove the part which 
exposes root's email as NetBackup will be sending it's emails from the 
root account.

Cheers :)

James
