You fix that in your mail-server with aliasing and/or canonicalising.  I
think the Asterisk behaviour is correct.  It is similar to receiving an
email from cron or some other daemon. That is sent
from "cron at hostname", which is fine for your internal purposes, but if
you send it out externally, you'll need to map it to a external
address.
