Using the vacation example from the procmailex man page, messages that

added a -I"From: slpalmer(_at_)mail(_dot_)com" to the formail line, but still 
get 
bounces due to the "Received" line inserted by sendmail having the 
"localhost.localdomain" in it. 

Could someone please point out what I'm doing wrong?

"formail -r" does not generate addresses, it only extracts them and places
them in different fields.  This implies that your mail setup is letting
through or generating address that contain localhost.localdomain.  You
need to fix your sendmail config.
