Email alerts are being sent as root user

Hi, 

I have just set nagios 1.2 up on a server running Redhat 8.0  It is up
and running beautifully, but the alert emails it sends out come from
root at servername.com rather than nagios at servername.com

Nagios is running as the user nagios and it definitely calls the
notify_by_email command as the nagios user, so why would they be comming
through from the root user?  Has anyone had this problem before?  Can
anyone please give me a fix?

Thanks
