What does that mean? Please be specific at best. From information given
we don't know whether you are speaking about masquerading as zoni.com or
whether the hostname is zoni.com or just that you added zoni.com to
local-host-names. Provide configuration file details as well log file
entries where it makes sense.

How is must.com related to zoni.com?

grep -n "must.com" /etc/mail/*

> it must recieve/send for must@xxxxxxxxx

"must" is a user on your system?

The sender From: can be faked easily by anyone.

So the header From: is set as you told your MUA (MS Outlook) to do so.

Your problem is what?

echo '$=w' | /usr/lib/sendmail -bt

  => tells you which domains are treated as local domain (Sendmail
accepts @class{w} for local delivery)

If you want to test for your configuration being an open relay:
