[asterisk-users] How to change sendmail return path

[shadowym]

"servermail=" changes what shows up in the "from" section of the email.  It
doesn't change what shows up in the email header which is what the mail
system looks at as the REAL return path.

The option you are looking for is called "serveremail". By default, if this
is 
not set, it will be set to "asterisk". Set this in the [general] section of 
voicemail.conf.
