The MASQUERADE_AS suggestions won't work because the mail would
then be from jeff@snet.net or sonya@snet.net.  Not metcalf@snet.net.
If you only had those two addresses you could probably work a deal
with your ISP but your etc.. suggests you have more.

One way to implement the Reply-To: suggestion so that it is
always set, regardless of MUA is to add

H?F?Reply-To: <metcalf@snet.net>

to your sendmail.cf in the section where From:, Message-ID etc..
are defined.

NB: This is *explicitly* noted as a BAD THING in _Sendmail_, the bible.

I think the best solution is to ask your provider to add a rule
to *their* S98 (local exceptions)

R$+ < @ dane.snet.net . >      $: metcalf < @ snet.net . >

They might want a little money for the service but it will work
perfectly.
