You may need to put the asterisk user into the trusted user list of 
sendmail - by default sendmail will not allow users apart from trusted 
one to change the From setting. Your server is running as the user 
asterisk and if you add that to the trusted list it might do the trick.

Sorry, but I don't know what sendmail Gentoo uses so can't tell you 
exactly how to do this.

Hope this helps.
