Mailx / Sendmail compatibility

Hiya.
I have an annoying problem with mailx/sendmail - we use
sendmail here to process all incoming mail (network and otherwise). When
sendmail finally gets the mail off to the local user (with /bin/mail),
"mail" always tacks on a "From daemon ..." since daemon owns "sendmail".
So when I run mailx, all incoming mail from the net looks like:
>N 1 daemon Wed Sep 21 10:49 10/64
Question: how can I set up sendmail or mailx to show me the REAL
user who sent the mail. I have a semi-decent understanding of the
"sendmail.cf" file.
Thanks a bunch!
