The program that is giving the error is sendmail.

In order to send mail as a different user, you have to be listed as 
being a "trusted user" in sendmail.cf.

Look for a block looking something like this in sendmail.cf:

#####################
#   Trusted users   #
#####################

# this is equivalent to setting class "t"
Ft/etc/mail/trusted-users
Troot
Tdaemon
Tuucp
