It's all in the misccommands.cfg

Actually it is not Nagios' responsebility to control the sender
email address, but that of your system. If you are sending as
root at locahost it shows that your sendmail is not fully configured.
What you might want to do is either fix your sendmail installation
(no, I'm not going into details how to do that), or change
misccommands.cfg. /sbin/mail becomes /sbin/sendmail and you
might want to add -fnagios at my.mailserver.is.broken.com to force
the envelope-sender. Note that this only works if Nagios is run
under a user that has rights to change the envelope in sendmail.

 -> man sendmail
