This is sendmail.  You need to put your login in /etc/mail/trusted-users.  
And you need to enable the feature:

use_ct_file     Read the file /etc/mail/trusted-users file to get the
                names of users that will be ``trusted'', that is, able to
                set their envelope from address using -f without generating
                a warning message.  The actual filename can be overridden
                by redefining confCT_FILE.
