Set user "www" as a trusted user in sendmail.  Exactly how to do that
depends on your sendmail installation.  Normally, you can just go into
your sendmail.cf and add:
Twww
and it should work (restart sendmail).  There's a way to do it in the
macros, but I can never remember it.

I have no answer for this.  Not a sendmail guru.
