pine username return address

hello all
I am happily using pine but unhappily sending email as username@where.my.mail.works
instead of ****@my.college.edu
well, my username on my computer is one thing, but my username on my college account (**** here) is different.

what I'm trying to do is use the college server for sending mail,
but when I do that (set up sendmail using mailconf, anyone want to help me out there? it takes about 5 minutes to start sendmail) and set up the user-domain and smtp server in pine, my reply address is not what I want, it's the right server, but the wrong username.
is there some way to send email *as* someone else? would I have to set up a new user with the username I want??? it seems to me that there must be some way of using pine ..........
or is my question about sendmail???
anyway, help!
thanks
