I changed MailFrom="" in /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf
That altered "From:" in the headers, but "Sender:" is still "root@ip-xx-xx-xx-xx.domain"
EC2 Linux AMI beta,
Postfix is the mailer

Arrived here via google with the same problem.
Adding the "-f user" option to sendmail in
/usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf
had no effect.Turns out logwatch.pl processes
/usr/share/logwatch/dist.conf/logwatch.conf
after/usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/logwatch.conf
.Edit or remove the
MailFrom = root
override in/usr/share/logwatch/dist.conf/logwatch.conf
for it to work.
