[Solved] Sendmail on AIX adding header rewrite

Hi,

I have been having issues with sendmail service on the AIX server recently with header rewrite on few random email generated from the scripts or programs.

I'm not sure what is causing as rest of the emails from the sever is generating correctly?

AIX Server --> GATEWAY SERVER(Serv2smtp)
user@host.com--> user@Serv2smtp.com.au Queues up n goes in loop with error

user@host.com ---> user@host.com Works

Since the gateway cannot authenticate the user it goes in a queue and keeps sending a message as below after every few hours.

Code:
Your message 
    From:    ####@####.net
    Subject: 
 
 Has been delayed for some or all of the intended recipients. 
 
 The recipients that were affected are:
     test@###smtp
 
 Your message was received 09:01:49 Mon, 01 October 2012.
 The mail system will keep trying to deliver your message for another 
 43 hours 44 minutes.
 
 Additional Information
 ======================
 Original Sender:    <######@##.net>
 Sender-MTA:         <###########>
 Reporting-MTA:      <mail.######.com.au>
 MessageName:        <B5068cf5d0000..#######000000000001.0001.mml>

Tested the server using the telnet command and it works
mail -v -s "TEST" user@host.com ----works

Can someone please help me what file to check and where is it doing the rewrite or erroring it out.

Thanks in advance.
